Lyrics and translation Maria Muldaur - Mairzy Doats
I
know
a
ditty
nutty
as
a
fruitcake
Je
connais
une
chanson
aussi
folle
qu'un
gâteau
aux
fruits
Goofy
as
a
goon
and
silly
as
a
loon
aussi
stupide
qu'un
idiot
et
aussi
idiote
qu'un
fou
Some
call
it
pretty,
Certains
la
trouvent
jolie,
Others
call
it
crazy
D'autres
la
trouvent
folle
But
they
all
sing
this
tune:
Mais
tous
chantent
cette
mélodie:
Mairzy
doats
and
dozy
doats
Mairzy
doats
et
dozy
doats
And
liddle
lamzy
divey
Et
liddle
lamzy
divey
A
kiddley
divey
too,
wouldn't
you?
Un
kiddley
divey
aussi,
tu
ne
trouves
pas?
Yes!
Mairzy
doats
and
dozy
doats
Oui!
Mairzy
doats
et
dozy
doats
And
liddle
lamzy
divey
Et
liddle
lamzy
divey
A
kiddley
divey
too,
wouldn't
you?
Un
kiddley
divey
aussi,
tu
ne
trouves
pas?
If
the
words
sound
queer
Si
les
mots
te
semblent
bizarres
And
funny
to
your
ear,
Et
drôles
à
tes
oreilles,
A
little
bit
jumbled
and
jivey
Un
peu
mélangés
et
chaotiques
Sing
"Mares
eat
oats
Chante
"Les
juments
mangent
de
l'avoine
And
does
eat
oats
Et
les
biches
mangent
de
l'avoine
And
little
lambs
eat
ivy"
Et
les
petits
agneaux
mangent
du
lierre"
Oh!
Mairzy
doats
and
dozy
doats
Oh!
Mairzy
doats
et
dozy
doats
And
liddle
lamzy
divey
Et
liddle
lamzy
divey
A
kiddley
divey
too,
wouldn't
you?
Un
kiddley
divey
aussi,
tu
ne
trouves
pas?
A
kiddley
divey
too,
wouldn't
you?
Un
kiddley
divey
aussi,
tu
ne
trouves
pas?
