Stewball(original) |
| Il s’appelait Stewball |
| C'était un cheval blanc |
| Il était mon idole |
| Il s’appelait Stewball |
| C'était un cheval blanc |
| Il était mon idole |
| Et moi j’avais dix ans |
| Notre pauvre père |
| Pour acheter ce pur- sang |
| Avait mis dans l’affaire |
| Jusqu'à son dernier franc |
| Il avait dans la tête |
| D’en faire un grand champion |
| Pour liquider nos dettes |
| Et payer la maison |
| Il croyait à sa chance |
| Il engagea Stewball |
| Par un beau dimanche |
| Au grand prix de Saint- Paul |
| Je sais dit mon père |
| Que Stewball va gagner |
| Mais aprés la rivière |
| Stewball est tombé |
| Quand le vétérinaire |
| D’un seul coup l’acheva |
| J’ai vu pleurer mon père |
| Pour la première fois |
| Il s’appelait Stewball |
| C'était un cheval blanc |
| Il était mon idole |
| Et moi j’avais dix ans (x3) |
| (translation) |
| His name was Stewball |
| He was a white horse |
| He was my idol |
| His name was Stewball |
| He was a white horse |
| He was my idol |
| And I was ten years old |
| our poor father |
| To buy this thoroughbred |
| Had put in the case |
| Until his last franc |
| He had in mind |
| To make him a great champion |
| To liquidate our debts |
| And pay for the house |
| He believed in his luck |
| He hired Stewball |
| On a beautiful Sunday |
| At the grand prix of Saint-Paul |
| I know said my father |
| That Stewball will win |
| But after the river |
| Stewball fell |
| When the veterinarian |
| In one fell swoop |
| I saw my father cry |
| For the first time |
| His name was Stewball |
| He was a white horse |
| He was my idol |
| And I was ten (x3) |
