La cite de carcassonne


Il y a des villes tristes
Où les pauvres touristes
Font des nez longs comme ça
D'vant les monuments.
Ils s'ennuient en visite
Et désirent vite vite
Partir pour des lieux plus charmants,
Mais moi qui ne trouve pas les musées amusants,
Mais moi qui fut toujours enn'mi des monuments,
J'connais une ville charmante féodale, familière
Qui joint la jeune gaîté au goût des vieilles pierres.

Joyeuse cité,
Celle de Carcassonne
Hiver comme été,
Enfants et grandes personnes,
Ils vont danser l'bee-bop
Et c'est gentil comme tout
Devant ces vieux murs.

Mon cœur en frissonne.
Au lieu des armures,
Des airs de jazz résonnent.
Ils vont danser l'bee-bop et c'est un succès fou.
Dans les donjons, y a des trombones heureux
Qui soufflent des chansons pour les cœurs amoureux
Et, jusqu'au fond des vieux machicoulis,
On entend, jour et nuit,
Des cris, des cris...

Joyeuse cité,
Cité de Carcassonne
Hiver comme été,
Enfants et grandes personnes,
Ils vont danser l'bee-bop,
Et c'est un succès fou.

Parfois une valse tendre,
Le soir, se fait entendre.
On la danse à trois temps, pas pour longtemps.
Le style de cette danse,
Malgré son élégance,
Déplaît à tous les habitants.
Mais moi qui suis comme eux, qui n'aime pas les trois temps,
Qui préfère, c'est curieux, les airs de notre temps,
Je trouve à Carcassonne la joie de tout mon être
Et quand je suis là-bas, je sens mon cœur renaître.

Danse, danse, danse en cadence,
Carcassonne danse,
Danse, danse,
C'est gentil comme tout.

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

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.
