Lyrics and translation Hank Williams - Cherokee Boogie

Cherokee Boogie

Oh, a Cherokee chief
As he dances along
He does an Indian boogie
To a white man's song

Singin' hey ho a lina, hey ho a lina
Singin' hey ho a lina, hey ho a lina
Singin' hey ho a lina
A well, a hey ho a lina, wup wup, a witten a yeah

Well, he dances over here
And he dances over there
And he dances with his [Incomprehensible]
Called standing bare

Singin' hey ho a lina, hey ho a lina
Singin' hey ho a lina, hey ho a lina
Singin' hey ho a lina
Oh, a hey ho a lina, wup wup, a witten a yeah

Well, he dances in a truck
And he dances on the rock
But he keep on shakin'
His old tomahawk

Singin' hey ho a lina, hey ho a lina
Singin' hey ho a lina, hey ho a lina
Singin' hey ho a lina
Oh, a hey ho a lina, wup wup, a witten a yeah

Now, he sings a little soft
And he sings a little loud
[Incomprehensible]
Blue, blue clouds

Singin' hey ho a lina, hey ho a lina
Singin' hey ho a lina, hey ho a lina
Singin' hey ho a lina
Oh, a hey ho a lina, wup wup, a witten a yeah

He's a Cherokee cheif
As all might know
When he sings his boogie
Singin' nuven-yo

Singin' hey ho a lina, hey ho a lina
Singin' hey ho a lina, hey ho a lina
Singin' hey ho a lina
Ooh, a hey ho a lina, wup wup, a witten a yeah

Cherokee Boogie

Oh, un chef cherokee
Comme il danse
Il fait un boogie indien
Sur une chanson d'homme blanc

Chantant hey ho a lina, hey ho a lina
Chantant hey ho a lina, hey ho a lina
Chantant hey ho a lina
Eh bien, un hey ho a lina, wup wup, un witten a yeah

Eh bien, il danse ici
Et il danse là-bas
Et il danse avec son [Incompréhensible]
Appelé debout nu

Chantant hey ho a lina, hey ho a lina
Chantant hey ho a lina, hey ho a lina
Chantant hey ho a lina
Oh, un hey ho a lina, wup wup, un witten a yeah

Eh bien, il danse dans un camion
Et il danse sur le rocher
Mais il continue de secouer
Sa vieille hache de guerre

Chantant hey ho a lina, hey ho a lina
Chantant hey ho a lina, hey ho a lina
Chantant hey ho a lina
Oh, un hey ho a lina, wup wup, un witten a yeah

Maintenant, il chante un peu doucement
Et il chante un peu fort
[Incompréhensible]
Des nuages bleus, des nuages bleus

Chantant hey ho a lina, hey ho a lina
Chantant hey ho a lina, hey ho a lina
Chantant hey ho a lina
Oh, un hey ho a lina, wup wup, un witten a yeah

Il est un chef cherokee
Comme tout le monde le sait
Quand il chante son boogie
Chantant nuven-yo

Chantant hey ho a lina, hey ho a lina
Chantant hey ho a lina, hey ho a lina
Chantant hey ho a lina
Ooh, un hey ho a lina, wup wup, un witten a yeah
