Lyrics and translation Ella Fitzgerald feat. Duke Ellington and His Orchestra & Jimmy Jones Trio - Thou Swell (Live (7/29/66-Cote D'Azur))




Thou Swell (Live (7/29/66-Cote D'Azur))
Tu es formidable (En direct (29/07/66-Côte d'Azur))
Thou swell, thou witty
Tu es formidable, tu es spirituelle
Thou sweet, thou grand
Tu es douce, tu es grandiose
Wouldst kiss me pretty
Tu veux m'embrasser tendrement
Wouldst hold my hand
Tu veux me tenir la main
Both thine eyes are cute too
Tes deux yeux sont si mignons
What they do to me?
Que me font-ils ?
Hear me holler I choose
Écoute-moi hurler : je choisis
A sweet lollapaloosa in thee
Un adorable cadeau extraordinaire en toi
I'd feel so rich
Je me sentirais si riche
In a hut for two
Dans une cabane pour deux
Two rooms and kitchen
Deux pièces et une cuisine
I'm sure would do
Je suis sûre que ce serait suffisant
Give me just a plot of
Donne-moi juste un petit morceau de
Not a lot of land
Pas beaucoup de terre
And thou swell, thou witty
Et tu es formidable, tu es spirituelle
Thou grand
Tu es grandiose
Thou swell, thou witty
Tu es formidable, tu es spirituelle
Thou sweet, thou grand
Tu es douce, tu es grandiose
Wouldst kiss me pretty
Tu veux m'embrasser tendrement
Wouldst hold my hand
Tu veux me tenir la main
Both thine eyes are cute too
Tes deux yeux sont si mignons
What they do to me?
Que me font-ils ?
Hear me holler I choose
Écoute-moi hurler : je choisis
A sweet lollapaloosa in thee
Un adorable cadeau extraordinaire en toi
I'd feel so rich
Je me sentirais si riche
In a hut for two
Dans une cabane pour deux
Two rooms and kitchen
Deux pièces et une cuisine
I'm sure would do
Je suis sûre que ce serait suffisant
Give me just a plot of
Donne-moi juste un petit morceau de
Not a lot of land
Pas beaucoup de terre
And thou swell, thou witty
Et tu es formidable, tu es spirituelle
Thou grand
Tu es grandiose
