Lyrics and translation George Formby - Easy Going Chap
Once
I
thought
I
would
go
in
for
flying
and
so
Une
fois,
j'ai
pensé
que
j'irais
voler,
alors
A
chap
took
me
up
in
his
plane
Un
type
m'a
emmené
dans
son
avion
Thought
some
stunts
he
would
try,
loop
the
loop
in
the
sky
Il
a
pensé
essayer
des
cascades,
faire
des
loopings
dans
le
ciel
We
turned
over
and
over
again
On
a
fait
des
tonneaux
It's
a
good
job
I'm
an
easy
going
chap
C'est
bien
que
je
sois
un
type
cool
Take
things
as
they
come
Je
prends
les
choses
comme
elles
viennent
He
quite
thought
the
stunts
were
cute
Il
a
trouvé
que
les
cascades
étaient
amusantes
But
my
nerves
they
didn't
suit
Mais
mes
nerfs
n'étaient
pas
d'accord
I
cried
I'm
jumping
out
and
grabbed
hold
of
the
parachute
J'ai
crié
que
je
sautais
et
j'ai
attrapé
le
parachute
Then
he
shouted
"That
won't
open
it's
no
good"
Alors
il
a
crié
"Ca
ne
s'ouvrira
pas,
c'est
pas
bon"
I
said
"Well
I
don't
care
a
rap
J'ai
dit
"Je
m'en
fiche
If
it's
broken
and
not
sound
Si
c'est
cassé
et
pas
en
état
I'll
get
quickly
to
the
ground
Je
vais
vite
toucher
le
sol
It's
a
good
job
I'm
an
easy
going
chap
C'est
bien
que
je
sois
un
type
cool
It
occurred
once
to
me
that
a
nudist
I'd
be
Il
m'est
arrivé
de
penser
que
je
serais
nu
So
the
camp
one
day
I
took
by
storm
Alors
je
me
suis
présenté
au
camp
un
jour
As
I
strolled
about
there,
all
the
girls
I
declare
En
me
promenant,
toutes
les
filles,
je
te
le
dis
Passed
remarks
about
my
manly
form
Ont
fait
des
remarques
sur
ma
forme
virile
It's
a
good
job
I'm
an
easy
going
chap
C'est
bien
que
je
sois
un
type
cool
Take
things
as
they
come
Je
prends
les
choses
comme
elles
viennent
They
said
he's
so
thin
and
tall
Elles
ont
dit
qu'il
est
si
fin
et
grand
Through
a
crack
he'd
almost
crawl
Il
pourrait
presque
passer
par
une
fissure
If
you're
looking
at
him
sideways
Si
tu
le
regardes
de
côté
Then
you
can't
see
him
at
all
Alors
tu
ne
le
vois
pas
du
tout
He's
so
skinny
like
a
skeleton
he
looks
Il
est
si
maigre
qu'il
ressemble
à
un
squelette
And
of
fat
he
hasn't
a
scrap
Et
il
n'a
pas
un
gramme
de
graisse
I
said
though
I've
not
a
lot
J'ai
dit
que
même
si
j'en
ai
pas
beaucoup
Still
I'm
proud
of
what
I've
got
Je
suis
quand
même
fier
de
ce
que
j'ai
It's
a
good
job
I'm
an
easy
going
chap
C'est
bien
que
je
sois
un
type
cool
One
night
I
rang
the
bell
at
a
country
hotel
Un
soir,
j'ai
sonné
à
la
porte
d'un
hôtel
de
campagne
And
someone
came
down
in
the
gloom
Et
quelqu'un
est
descendu
dans
la
pénombre
We're
all
full
up
they
said
but
we'll
fix
up
a
bed
On
est
complet,
ont-ils
dit,
mais
on
va
te
trouver
un
lit
If
you're
willing
to
share
baby's
room
Si
tu
veux
partager
la
chambre
du
bébé
It's
a
good
job
I'm
an
easy
going
chap
C'est
bien
que
je
sois
un
type
cool
Take
things
as
they
come
Je
prends
les
choses
comme
elles
viennent
I
said
fix
me
anywhere
J'ai
dit,
installez-moi
n'importe
où
Baby's
room
I'll
gladly
share
La
chambre
du
bébé,
je
la
partagerai
avec
plaisir
As
soon
as
I
commenced
undressing
Dès
que
j'ai
commencé
à
me
déshabiller
I
got
such
a
scare
J'ai
eu
une
telle
peur
In
the
doorway
such
a
lovely
girl
appeared
Une
si
belle
fille
est
apparue
dans
l'embrasure
de
la
porte
I
was
just
putting
on
my
nightcap
J'étais
en
train
de
mettre
mon
bonnet
de
nuit
"Goodness
who
are
you?"
I
cried
"Bon
sang,
qui
êtes-vous
?"
ai-je
crié
I'm
the
baby
she
replied
C'est
moi,
le
bébé,
a-t-elle
répondu
It's
a
good
job
I'm
an
easy
going
chap
C'est
bien
que
je
sois
un
type
cool
