Lorsque j'étais une petite fille
C'était toi l'artiste de la famille
Pour nous amuser il fallait te voir
Comme Al Johnson, tout barbouillé de noir
Chanter avec l'accent américain
Cette chanson qui me revient de loin
Papa, premier spectacle de ma vie
C'que t'étais bien, alors moi aujourd'hui
Je chante pour Swanee, pour Swanee mon ami
Chanteur et musicien américain
Je chante pour Swanee et ses souliers vernis
Qui marquait le tempo de son banjo
Je chante pour Swanee premier rire de ma vie
Premier amour de mon enfance
Alors puisqu'aujourd'hui enfin je suis ici
Si je chante c'est pour Swanee
Parce que comme Al Johnson, tu chantais Swanee
La maison s'allumait de mille étoiles
Music-hall, music-hall, tu étais ma vie
Alors papa, tu comprends que depuis
Je chante pour Swanee, pour Swanee mon ami
Danseur et comédien américain
Je chante pour Swanee, son claque et son habit
Son maquillage noir et son cigare...
Je chante pour Swanee car son ombre me suit
Près de moi je la vois qui danse
Alors puisqu'aujourd'hui enfin je suis ici
Avec tous mes amis, par cette mélodie
Si je chante c'est pour Swanee
{Choeurs:}
On chante pour Swanee, pour Swanee notre ami
Chanteur et musicien américain
On chante pour Swanee et ses souliers vernis
Qui marquait le tempo de son banjo
On chante pour Swanee le merveilleux Swanee
Qui faisait chanter son enfance
Alors puisqu'aujourd'hui enfin elle est ici
Si on chante c'est pour Swanee
On chante pour Swanee, pour Swanee son ami
Danseur et comédien américain
On chante pour Swanee, son claque et son habit
Son maquillage noir et son cigare
On chante pour Swanee car son ombre la suit
Et près d'elle, on la voit qui danse
Alors puisqu'aujourd'hui enfin elle est ici
Avec elle mes amis, par cette mélodie
Si on chante c'est pour Swanee
