Lyrics Le cheval Jacques Brel

Le cheval


'étais vraiment j'étais bien plus heureux
Bien plus heureux avant
Quand j'étais ch'val
Que je trainais Madame votre landeau
Jolie Madame dans les rues de Bordeaux
Mais t'as voulu
Que je sois ton amant
T'as même voulu
Que je quitte ma jument
Je n'étais qu'un ch'val oui oui
Mas t'en as profité
Par amour pour toi
Je m'suis déjumenté
Et depuis
Toutes les nuits
Dans ton lit
De satin blanc
Je regrette mon écurie
Mon écurie et ma jument

J'étais vraiment vraiment bien plus heureux
Bien plus heureux avant
Quand j'étais ch'val
Que tu te foutais Madame
La gueule par terre
Jolie madame
Quand tu forcais le cerf
Mais tu as voulu
Que j'apprenne les bonnes manières
T'as voulu
Que j'marche sur les pattes de derrière
Je n'étais qu'un ch'val oui ouais
Mais tu m'as couillonné hein
Par amour pour toi
Je m'suis derrièrisé
Et depuis
Toutes les nuits
Quand nous dansons le tango
Je regrette mon écurie
Mon écurie et mon galop

J'étais vraiment vraiment bien plus heureux
Bien plus heureux avant
Quand j'étais ch'val
Que je te promenais
Madame sur mon dos
Jolie madame en forêt
De Fontainebleau
Mais tu as voulu
Que je sois ton banquier
Tu as même voulu
Que je me mette à chanter
J'n'étais qu'un ch'val oui oui
Mais tu en as abusé
Par amour pour toi
je me suis variété
Et depuis
toutes les nuits
Quand je chante: "Ne me quitte pas"
Je regrette mon écurie
Et mes silences d'autrefois

Et puis et puis tu es partie radicale
Avec un zèbre un zèbre mal rayé
Le jour madame où je t'ai refusé
D'apprendre à monter à cheval
Et tu m'avais pris ma jument
Mon silence mes sabots
Mon écurie mon galop
Tu ne m'as laissé que mes dents
Et voilà pourquoi je cours je cours
Je cours le monde en hennissant
Me voyant refuser l'amour
Par les femmes et par les juments

J'étais vraiment vraiment bien plus heureux
Bien plus heureux avant
Quand j'étais ch'val
Que je promenais madame votre landeau
Quand j'étais ch'val
Et quand tu étais chameau

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
