Il était un peu poète et un peu vagabond
Il n'avait jamais connu ni patrie, ni patron
Il venait de n'importe oû, allait aux quatre vents
Mais dedans sa roulotte nous étions dix enfants
Et le soir, autour d'un feu de camp
On rêvait d'une maison blanche en chantant
Qu'il est long, qu'il est loin, ton chemin, papa
C'est vraiment fatiguant d'aller oû tu vas
Qu'il est long, qu'il est loin, ton chemin, papa
Tu devrais t'arrêter dans ce coin
Mais il ne nous écoutait pas et dès le petit jour
La famille reprenait son voyage au long cours
À peine le temps pour notre mère de laver sa chemise
Et nous voilà repartis pour une nouvelle Terre Promise
Et le soir, autour d'un feu de camp
Elle rêvait d'une maison blanche en chantant
Qu'il est long, qu'il est loin, ton chemin, papa
C'est vraiment fatiguant d'aller oû tu vas
Qu'il est long, qu'il est loin, ton chemin, papa
Tu devrais t'arrêter dans ce coin
Et c'est ainsi que cahotant à travers les saisons
C'est ainsi que regardant par-dessus l'horizon
Sans même s'en apercevoir not' père nous a semés
Aux quatre coins du monde comme des grains de blé
Et quelque part au bout de l'univers
Roule encore la vieille roulotte de mon père
Qu'il est long, qu'il est loin, ton chemin, papa
C'est vraiment fatiguant d'aller oû tu vas
Qu'il est long, qu'il est loin, ton chemin, papa
Tu devrais t'arrêter dans ce coin
Joe Dassin (Joseph Ira Dassin, 1938-1980) was an American-born French singer and songwriter. Considered one of the greatest French music artists of the 1960s and 1970s, Dassin captivated audiences with his warm voice and romantic, catchy songs. A polyglot, he could express himself and sing in English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, and Greek. Born in New York to French parents, he moved to France at the age of 18 to pursue music. His breakthrough came with the song "Les Champs-Élysées" (1970), which became a national anthem of France. Among his most famous songs are also "Salut les copains", "Et si tu n'existais pas", and "Laissez-moi danser". Dassin collaborated with numerous French artists, including Claude François and Gilbert Bécaud. His music is still widely appreciated in France and around the world.
