1 - The other day near Longchamp
I was walking quietly
When suddenly I heard
Behind me a funny noise
I was thinking naturally
That's still quite simply
A nag going about his business
While pulling his old tree
It was a mistake
Judge my surprise
When I turned around
A blonde child came forward!
{Chorus:}
She had wooden soles
Which made click clack click clac
And every time
I heard this charming little noise
It made click clac click clac
Deep in my heart
Click clack click clack
My friends
click clack click clack
What a sweet sound! ...
She had me all excited
With her soles, soles, wooden soles.
2 - Gently I smiled at her
Then immediately I followed her
For an hour without respite
But when the tour of the wood was finished
She did it three more times
Clacking her wooden soles
I wasn't making anything smack
But I swear to you, I was smacked!
As I shouted grace
She said with grace
Let's make a one more round...
And I left, unable to take it anymore.
{in the Refrain}
3 - In order to decide it
To come to my house for tea ©
Very seriously I swore to her
That no one would see her
But she made on the stairs
So much noise with her shoes
That immediately at each landing
People came out to look at us
And the chatterbox
Always very discreet
Went without hesitation
Aroused the neighborhood entire
{to the Refrain}
