Lyrics and translation The Boswell Sisters - An Evening in Caroline
When
poets
write,
they
love
to
write
'bout
Southland
Quand
les
poètes
écrivent,
ils
aiment
écrire
sur
le
Sud
It's
not
exaggeration,
it's
not
imagination
Ce
n'est
pas
une
exagération,
ce
n'est
pas
de
l'imagination
Now
if
you
wanna
see
the
moon
in
all
it's
splendor
Maintenant,
si
tu
veux
voir
la
lune
dans
toute
sa
splendeur
If
you
wanna
see
the
way
the
stars
can
shine
Si
tu
veux
voir
comment
les
étoiles
peuvent
briller
If
you
wanna
feel
the
breeze
that's
sweetly
tender
Si
tu
veux
sentir
la
brise
douce
et
tendre
Spend
an
evening
in
Caroline
Passe
une
soirée
à
Caroline
Now
if
you
really
wanna
hear
the
whip-poor-will
sir
Maintenant,
si
tu
veux
vraiment
entendre
le
cri
du
hibou
And
the
answer
to
the
words:
"will
you
be
mine?"
Et
la
réponse
aux
mots :
"Veux-tu
être
à
moi ?"
If
you
wanna
give
your
heart
a
perfect
growth
sir
Si
tu
veux
donner
à
ton
cœur
une
croissance
parfaite
Spend

Caroline
Yes

Oui,

ce
que
tu
veux
I
know
what
it's
like
to
be
glad
by
now
Je

ce
que
c'est
que
d'être
heureux
maintenant
Yes
sir,
say
what
you
may
Oui,
dis
ce
que
tu
veux
I
never
could
ever
be
blue
Je
n'ai
jamais
pu
être
bleue
Don't
you
tell
me
that
you
really
have
to
guess
sir
Ne
me
dis
pas
que
tu
dois
vraiment
deviner
Why
I
learned
to
love
the
Carolina
pine
Pourquoi
j'ai
appris
à
aimer
le
pin
de
Caroline
If

la
plus
douce
des
