When It's Sleepy Time Down South - Live At Crescendo Club/1955
Quand il est l'heure de dormir dans le Sud - En direct du Crescendo Club/1955
The pale moon shining on the fields below
La pâle lune brille sur les champs en contrebas
The folks are crooning songs soft and low
Les gens chantent des chansons douces et basses
You needn't tell me so because I know
Tu n'as pas besoin de me le dire, je sais
When it's sleepy time down south
Quand il est l'heure de dormir dans le Sud
Soft winds blowing through the pinewood trees
Des vents doux soufflent à travers les pins
The folks down there like a life of ease
Les gens du Sud aiment une vie tranquille
When old mammy falls upon her knees
Quand la vieille mamie s'agenouille
When it's sleepy time down south
Quand il est l'heure de dormir dans le Sud
Steamboats on the river a coming or a going
Des bateaux à vapeur sur la rivière, qui arrivent ou qui partent
Splashing the night away
Eclaboussant la nuit
You hear those banjos ringing, the people are singing
Tu entends ces banjos sonner, les gens chantent
They dance til the break of day, hey
Ils dansent jusqu'au petit matin, hey
Dear old southland with his dreamy songs
Cher vieux Sud avec ses chansons rêveuses
Takes me back there where I belong
Me ramène là où j'appartiens
Right in my mammy's arms
Juste dans les bras de ma maman
When it's sleepy time way down south
Quand il est l'heure de dormir tout au Sud
Dear old southland with his dreamy songs
Cher vieux Sud avec ses chansons rêveuses
Take me back there where I belong
Me ramène là où j'appartiens
Right in my mammy's arms
Juste dans les bras de ma maman
When it's sleepy time
Quand il est l'heure de dormir
Sleepy time down south
L'heure de dormir dans le Sud
