Don't You Rock Me Daddy O - Lonnie Donegan

Me an' my brother was goin' to town

Sing away, ladies, sing away

Ridin' a billy goat, leadin' a hound

Sing away, ladies, sing away

Hound dog bark, billy goat jump,

Sing away, ladies, sing away

Throw’d my brother right over that stump

Sing away, ladies, sing away

Don’t you rock me, Daddy-O

Don’t you rock me, Daddy-O

Don’t you rock me, Daddy-O

Don’t you rock me, Daddy-O

Well, my old auntie promised me

Sing away, ladies, sing away

When she died she’s will to me

Sing away, ladies, sing away

Well, she lived so long her head got bald

Sing away, ladies, sing away

Why, she got out the notion of dyin' at all.

Sing away, ladies, sing away

Don’t you rock me, Daddy-O

Don’t you rock me, Daddy-O

Don’t you rock me, Daddy-O

Don’t you rock me, Daddy-O

Sing away, ladies, sing away

Sing away, ladies, sing away

Don’t you rock me, Daddy-O

Don’t you rock me, Daddy-O

Don’t you rock me, Daddy-O

Don’t you rock me, Daddy-O

Ah, me an' my brother was comin' into town

Sing away, ladies, sing away

Ridin' a billy goat, leadin' a hound

Sing away, ladies, sing away

Don’t you rock me, Daddy-O

Don’t you rock me, Daddy-O

Don’t you rock me, Daddy-O

Don’t you rock me… Daddy-O!

Moi et mon frère allions en ville

Chantez, mesdames, chantez

Monter un bouc, mener un chien

Chantez, mesdames, chantez

Chien de chasse qui aboie, bouc qui saute,

Chantez, mesdames, chantez

J'ai jeté mon frère juste par-dessus cette souche

Chantez, mesdames, chantez

Ne me berce pas, Papa-O

Ne me berce pas, Papa-O

Ne me berce pas, Papa-O

Ne me berce pas, Papa-O

Eh bien, ma vieille tante m'a promis

Chantez, mesdames, chantez

Quand elle est morte, elle me veut

Chantez, mesdames, chantez

Eh bien, elle a vécu si longtemps que sa tête est devenue chauve

Chantez, mesdames, chantez

Pourquoi, elle a sorti l'idée de mourir du tout.

Chantez, mesdames, chantez

Ne me berce pas, Papa-O

Ne me berce pas, Papa-O

Ne me berce pas, Papa-O

Ne me berce pas, Papa-O

Chantez, mesdames, chantez

Chantez, mesdames, chantez

Ne me berce pas, Papa-O

Ne me berce pas, Papa-O

Ne me berce pas, Papa-O

Ne me berce pas, Papa-O

Ah, moi et mon frère arrivaient en ville

Chantez, mesdames, chantez

Monter un bouc, mener un chien

Chantez, mesdames, chantez

Ne me berce pas, Papa-O

Ne me berce pas, Papa-O

Ne me berce pas, Papa-O

Ne me berce pas… Papa-O !
