Song information On this page you can read the lyrics of the song La Marie-Joseph , by - Les Frères JacquesLa Marie-Joseph(original) |
| Ça nous a pris trois mois complets |
| Pour découvrir quels étaient ses projets |
| Quand le père nous l’a dit, c'était trop beau |
| Pour les vacances nous avions un bateau |
| D’un bond d’un seul et sans hésitations |
| On s’documente sur la navigation |
| En moins d’huit jours nous fûmes persuadés |
| Que la mer pour nous n’aurait plus de secrets |
| Encore heureux qu’il ait fait beau |
| Et qu’la Marie-Joseph soit un bon bateau |
| Encore heureux qu’il ait fait beau |
| Et qu’la Marie-Joseph soit un bon bateau |
| Le père alors fit preuve d’autorité: |
| «J'suis ingénieur, laissez-moi commander!» |
| D’vant le résultat on lui a suggéré |
| Qu’un vrai marin vienne nous accompagner |
| Encore heureux qu’il ait fait beau |
| Et qu’la Marie-Joseph soit un bon bateau |
| Encore heureux qu’il ait fait beau |
| Et qu’la Marie-Joseph soit un bon bateau |
| Alors j’ai dit: «J'vais prendre la direction |
| Ancien marin, j’sais la navigation!» |
| J’commence à croire qu’c'était prématuré |
| Faut pas confondre Guitare et Naviguer |
| Encore heureux qu’il ait fait beau |
| Et qu’la Marie-Joseph soit un bon bateau |
| Encore heureux qu’il ait fait beau |
| Et qu’la Marie-Joseph soit un bon bateau |
| Au bout d’trois heures de notre exhibition |
| L’un d’nous se r’lève avec stupéfaction |
| Car on s'était pas beaucoup déplacé |
| Rapport à l’ancre qu’on n’avait pas r’montée |
| Encore heureux qu’il ait fait beau |
| Et qu’la Marie-Joseph soit un bon bateau |
| Encore heureux qu’il ait fait beau |
| Et qu’la Marie-Joseph soit un bon bateau |
| Côté jeunes filles, c'était pas mal |
| Ça nous a coûté l'écoute de grand-voile |
| En la coupant Suzon dit: «J'me rappelle |
| Qu’un d’mes louv’teaux voulait de la ficelle» |
| Encore heureux qu’il ait fait beau |
| Et qu’la Marie-Joseph soit un bon bateau |
| Encore heureux qu’il ait fait beau |
| Et qu’la Marie-Joseph soit un bon bateau |
| Pour la deuxième fallait pas la laisser |
| Toucher la barre ou même s’en approcher |
| Car en moins d’deux on était vent debout |
| «J'aime tant l’expression», disait-elle, «pas vous?» |
| Encore heureux qu’il ait fait beau |
| Et qu’la Marie-Joseph soit un bon bateau |
| Encore heureux qu’il ait fait beau |
| Et qu’la Marie-Joseph soit un bon bateau |
| Quand finalement on a pu réparer |
| Alors on s’est décidé à rentrer |
| Mais on n’a jamais trouvé l’appontement |
| Car à minuit on n’y voit pas tellement |
| Encore heureux qu’il ait fait beau |
| Et qu’la Marie-Joseph soit un bon bateau |
| Encore heureux qu’il ait fait beau |
| Et qu’la Marie-Joseph soit un bon bateau |
| On dit: «Maussade comme un marin breton» |
| Moi j’peux vous dire qu’c’est pas mon impression |
| Car tous les gars du côté d’Noirmoutier |
| Ne sont pas prêts d’arrêter de rigoler! |
| Encore heureux qu’il ait fait beau |
| Et qu’la Marie-Joseph soit un bon bateau |
| Encore heureux qu’il ait fait beau |
| Et qu’la Marie-Joseph soit un bon bateau |
| (translation) |
| It took us three full months |
| To find out what his plans were |
| When the father told us, it was too beautiful |
| For the holidays we had a boat |
| With one leap and without hesitation |
| We document ourselves on navigation |
| Within eight days we were persuaded |
| That the sea for us would have no more secrets |
| Still happy that the weather was nice |
| And that the Marie-Joseph is a good boat |
| Still happy that the weather was nice |
| And that the Marie-Joseph is a good boat |
| The father then showed authority: |
| "I'm an engineer, let me command!" |
| In view of the result it was suggested to him |
| Let a real sailor come with us |
| Still happy that the weather was nice |
| And that the Marie-Joseph is a good boat |
| Still happy that the weather was nice |
| And that the Marie-Joseph is a good boat |
| So I said, "I'll take the lead |
| Ex-sailor, I know seafaring!” |
| I'm starting to believe it was premature |
| Do not confuse Guitar and Navigate |
| Still happy that the weather was nice |
| And that the Marie-Joseph is a good boat |
| Still happy that the weather was nice |
| And that the Marie-Joseph is a good boat |
| After three hours of our exhibition |
| One of us gets up in amazement |
| Because we hadn't moved much |
| Report to the anchor that we had not raised |
| Still happy that the weather was nice |
| And that the Marie-Joseph is a good boat |
| Still happy that the weather was nice |
| And that the Marie-Joseph is a good boat |
| For young girls, it was not bad |
| It cost us the mainsail sheet |
| As she cut Suzon said, "I remember |
| That one of my wolf cubs wanted some string" |
| Still happy that the weather was nice |
| And that the Marie-Joseph is a good boat |
| Still happy that the weather was nice |
| And that the Marie-Joseph is a good boat |
| For the second you shouldn't leave her |
| Touching the bar or even getting close to it |
| Because in less than two we were upwind |
| "I like the expression so much," she would say, "don't you?" |
| Still happy that the weather was nice |
| And that the Marie-Joseph is a good boat |
| Still happy that the weather was nice |
| And that the Marie-Joseph is a good boat |
| When finally we could fix |
| So we decided to go back |
| But we never found the wharf |
| Because at midnight you can't see so much |
| Still happy that the weather was nice |
| And that the Marie-Joseph is a good boat |
| Still happy that the weather was nice |
| And that the Marie-Joseph is a good boat |
| They say: "Sulky like a Breton sailor" |
| I can tell you that it's not my impression |
| Because all the guys around Noirmoutier |
| Aren't ready to stop laughing! |
| Still happy that the weather was nice |
| And that the Marie-Joseph is a good boat |
| Still happy that the weather was nice |
| And that the Marie-Joseph is a good boat |
