Autour du rocher Lyrics


Jimmy Buffett, Henri Ledee, Leon Ledee, Marcel Limodin, Jean-Jacques KraifMes amis nous allons quelque part dont tout
le monde
Se rappelle d'un endroit ou l'herbe etait
toujours verte
Et la fete ne s'arretait jamais
A autour du rocherThis a a little tale about a hotel in the Caribbean.
Well it wasn't really a hotel, it was a patio
bar with funky rooms and an outdoor disco
with bad wiring. Some people said if you looked
between the cracks of the floorboards of our
dance floor you would see Hell. If you ever
went there, you would know what I'm talking
about. If you never had, then we
thought we'd send you a little musical souvenir.Some say it was a planet
Some say it was a rock
For five wild years in L"Orient
The party never stoppedThere were pirates from the Indies
There were models from Paris

There were locals and New Yorkers
And the Brazilian NavyBy mini-moke and scooters
In cabs and stolen cars
Came the creatures of the evening
From St. Martin and from MarsAlors, Alors, Alors, Alors alors come on, come on
Vien faire un tour autour du rocher
On croisera les fantomes du passe
Viens faire un tour autour du rocher
Sur les souvenirs l'herbe a pousseeGirl at the pool table
puts on a show for free
They were bivouacked in the bathroom
By the hot tub near the seaEvery night at midnight
Seems the devil took control
And the hill became a parking lot
Fueled by rock 'n' rollThey were talking by the cannon
But I couldn't believe my ears
The Russian had plutonium
The sailor wanted beersThey shook hands in the moonlight
And broke out a big cigar
Just business as usual
Beneath the tropic starsAlors(come on) alors (let's go) alors
Vien faire in tour autour du rocher
On croisera les fantomes du pass'e
Viens faire un tour autour du richer
Sur les souvinirs l'herbe a pousseeIt was better than a painting
At le Musee de Beaux Arts
And simply what we did for fun
Back in the old St. BartsThen the glitz and all the glamour
Hit like a hurricane
Or maybe we just all grew up
But it never was the sameThe gendarmes finally closed the joint
And the fire it did the rest
But on New Year's Eve of '91
We sang the last requestWe were dancing in the ashes
We were dancing in the sea
We were dancing in the ruins
Where we left our memories
Come on let's go alors
Vien faire un tour autour du rocher
On croisera les fantomes du pass'e
Viens faire un tour autour du rocher
Sur les souvinirs l'herbe a pousseeAlors. Alors, Alors, Alors
Vien faire un tour autour du rocher
On croisera les fantomes du pass'e
Viens faire untour autour du rocher
Sur les souvenirs l'herbe a poussee

Jimmy Buffett (born December 25, 1946 in Pascagoula, Mississippi, United States) is a singer/songwriter, best known for his "island escapism" lifestyle and music including hits such as "Margaritaville" and "Come Monday". He has a rabid, but genial, cult following known as "Parrotheads." They call the youngest members "Parakeets."

Buffett has written three No. 1 best sellers. Tales from Margaritaville and Where Is Joe Merchant? both spent over seven months on the New York Times Best Seller fiction list. His book A Pirate Looks At Fifty went straight to No. 1 on the New York Times Bestseller non-fiction list, making him one of seven authors in that list's history to have reached No. 1 on both the fiction and non-fiction lists. The other six authors who have accomplished this are Ernest Hemingway, John Steinbeck, William Styron, Irving Wallace, Dr. Seuss and Mitch Albom. He also co-wrote two children's books, Jolly Mon and Trouble Dolls, with his eldest daughter, Savannah Jane Buffett.

"A Salty Piece of Land", was released on November 30, 2004, and included a CD single of the same title. The book was a New York Times best seller soon after its release.

His latest book, "Swine Not," hit bookshelves on May 13th. It's a colorful tale about a family that lives in a posh New York hotel while covertly smuggling in their pet pig named Rumpy.

On Jan 25, 2011, he did an unintentional stage dive whilst touring Australia. Thankfully, the good Mr. Buffett is a resilient bloke and was released from hospital the following day and doing fine.
