C'était un enfant de quarant' cinq ans
Qui voyageait seul avec sa grand-mère.
C'était un enfant de quarant' cinq ans
Qui voyageait seul avec sa maman.
Sa grand' barbe noire aux longs poils frisants
F'sait l'admiration d'la famille entière.
Sa grand'barbe noire aux longs poils frisants,
F'sait l'admiration de tous ses parents.
Sur un bateau, il s'embarqua,
Croyant partir pour l'Kamtchatka
Mais au bout d'huit jours, quel drame !
Il s'écria "Mesdames :
Grand-maman, c'est new-York !
C'est New-York.
Je vois les bateaux-remorques,
Grand-maman, c'est New-York.
Je vois les bateaux dans le port de New-York.
Les mouettes font bonjour.
Dans le ciel je vois les jolies mouettes,
Les mouettes me font bonjour
Et je sens en moi de longs frissons d'amour.
Sa grand-mère le calma
Avec un bout de chocolat
Mais l'enfant, le cœur en fête,
Criait à tue-tête :
Grand-maman, c'est New-York,
C'est New-York : je vois les bateaux-remorques.
Grand-maman c'est New-York !
Je vois les bateaux dans le port de New-York.
Comme il était dans la diplomatie,
Il faisait parfois de charmants voyages.
Comme il était dans la diplomatie,
Il visitait tout, l'Europe et l'Asie.
Il vécut ainsi
Quatre-vingt-douze ans,
Toujours escorté de sa vieill' grand-mère.
Il vécut ainsi quatre-vingt-douze ans,
Toujour escorté de sa vieill' maman.
Le jour d'sa mort, elle était là
Qui lui donnait du chocolat,
Mais, perdu dans son délire
Il ne savait que dire :
Grand-maman, c'est New-York !
C'est New-York.
Je vois les bateaux-remorques,
Grand-maman, c'est New-York !
Je vois les bateaux dans le port de New-York.
Les mouettes me font bonjour.
Dans le ciel je vois les jolies mouettes,
Les mouettes me font bonjour
Et je sens en moi de longs frissons d'amour.
Quand au ciel, il arriva,
L'Empire State il retrouva.
Les anges lisaient le Daily News
En disant : Sacré bon Dious,
Mon p'tit gars c'est New-York,
C'est New-York, tu vois les bateaux remorques.
Mon p'tit gars c'est New-York !
Tu vois les bateaux dans le port de New-York,
Tu vois les bateaux dans le port de New-York.
Charles Trenet (Louis Charles Auguste Claude Trenet), born May 18, 1913, in Narbonne and died February 19, 2001, in Créteil, was a highly successful French singer-songwriter. His career began in the 1930s and reached its peak between the late 1930s and the mid-1950s, although it continued until the 1990s. Trenet distinguished himself by writing most of his songs, refusing to record songs composed by other artists during a period when it was rare for singers to write their own material. Among his most famous successes are "La Mer", "Boum!" and "Y'a d'la joie". Trenet helped define the sound of French chanson, influencing generations of artists.
