ALOUETTE's FLYING TOUR traditional French with new lyrics by Brian Barrentine
​
Alouette, gentille Alouette
Alouette je te plumerai
​
There's so much to do and see
In the city of "Pa-ree!"
Come with me To "Pa-ree"
We'll go...
floating
Down the river, floating down the river,
down the river, down the river Seine
​
climbing
up the tower, up the Eiffel Tower
up the tower, to the very top
​
riding
on the Metro, riding on the Metro
On the Metro underneath the streets
​
​
Are You Sleeping (Frère Jacques)
Frère Jacques, Frère Jacques,
Dormez-vous? Dormez-vous?
Sonnez les matines,
sonnez les matines
Ding ding dong, ding ding dong.
​
English Version:
Are you sleeping, are you sleeping?
Brother John, Brother John?
Morning bells are ringing, morning bells are ringing
Ding ding dong, ding ding dong.
Jazz Music thrives in Paris and Jazz Musicians sometimes call each other Cats...
SWING CAT
by Brian Barrentine
Swing Cat, Swing Cat, Hey Diddle Diddle
Out on the town, he plays the fiddle
Zing go the strings with a swing cat beat
He snaps his fingers and taps his feet
Then when the horns begin to blow
He jumps and he Jives and says,
"Go Daddy-O!"
