Fred Astaire - The Ritz Roll and Rock - translation of the lyrics into French

Lyrics and translation Fred Astaire - The Ritz Roll and Rock




The Ritz Roll and Rock
Le Ritz Roll and Rock
The rock and roll is dead and gone
Le rock and roll est mort et enterré
For since the smart set took it on
Depuis que la jet-set s'en est emparée
Because they found it much too tame
Parce qu'ils l'ont trouvé trop fade
They jazzed it up and changed its name
Ils l'ont jazzé et changé de nom
And all they do around the clock
Et tout ce qu'ils font 24h/24
Is the Ritz, roll and rock
C'est le Ritz, roll and rock
You see big bucks togged out in tails
Tu vois de gros billets habillés en queue-de-pie
Wing-dinging with expensive quails
Faire la fête avec des cailles chères
While dowagers and diplomats
Alors que les vieilles dames et les diplomates
Behave like bally alley cats
Se comportent comme des chats d'alley
And all they do around the clock
Et tout ce qu'ils font 24h/24
Is the Ritz, roll and rock
C'est le Ritz, roll and rock
These fancy fops and fillies throw swell affairs
Ces fringants dandys et ces filles lancent des affaires somptueuses
And make those hick hillbillies look like square
Et font passer ces rustres montagnards pour des carrés
It's been at least a year, they say
Ça fait au moins un an, disent-ils
Since any of them hit the hay
Depuis qu'ils ont touché le foin
And all they do around the clock
Et tout ce qu'ils font 24h/24
Is the Ritz, roll and rock
C'est le Ritz, roll and rock
