Un' demoisell' sur un' balançoire
Se balançait à la fête un dimanche
Elle était belle et l'on pouvait voir
Ses jambes blanches sous son jupon noir...
Le marchand lui criait : "Voulez-vous vous asseoir ?
Descendez, descendez, c'est assez pour ce soir,
Si vous restez debout
Vous allez vous casser le cou !"
Mais la demoisell' sur la balançoire
Riait, riait et montait de plus belle
Elle était belle et l'on pouvait croir'
Qu'ell' s'envolait pour toujours dans le ciel
Mais c'était défendu
Elle est redescendue
Quand elle est descendue
Moi j'étais tout ému
Je lui ai dit : "Mad'moiselle
J'ai cru que vous aviez des ailes !"
On est allés au tir,
Aux ch'vaux d'bois, aux nougats
Au cirque, à la femm' tronc
Mais ça n'l'amusait pas...
Ell' m'a dit : "Je vous remercie
Je préfèr' retourner là-bas..."
Et voilà qu'ell' m'a laissé
Pour aller s'balancer
Un' demoisell' sur un' balançoire
Se balançait à la fête un dimanche
Elle était belle et l'on pouvait voir
Ses jambes blanches sous son jupon noir...
Quand elle est descendue,
Toujours aussi ému
Je lui ai proposé : "Voulez-vous m'épouser ?"
A la mairie du douzième
J'ai dit oui, elle de mêm'
Je l'ai prise par le nez
Par le cou, par le bras
J'l'avais tout contre moi
Mais ça n'l'amusait pas
Ell' m'a dit : "J'vous remercie
Je préfèr' retourner là-bas..."
Et voilà qu'ell' m'a laissé
Pour aller s'balancer ! ...
Yves Montand, stage name of Ivo Livi (Marseille, October 13, 1921 – Paris, November 9, 1991), was an Italian-born French singer and actor. Considered one of the greatest interpreters of French chanson in the 20th century, Montand combined vocal power with a deep interpretive sensibility. His career, which began in the 1940s in France, saw him collaborate with some of the most important names in French music and cinema, including Charles Aznavour, Edith Piaf and Jean-Luc Godard. Among his most famous songs are "Les Feuilles Mortes", "La Vie en Rose" (cover of Édith Piaf) and "Le Chant des Partisans". Montand also starred in numerous films, earning international recognition for his performance in "Red Sky" (1964), directed by Jean-Luc Godard.
