Le Vent Du Nord La Veillee Chez Poirier lyrics

Le Vent Du Nord
Dans Les Airs
La Veillee Chez Poirier
Listen to the story I have to sing for you
Nico, Réjean, Olo and I had sited up
We had sited up at the chap Poirier
I am going to tell you nasty tricks we played

Lighting pipe as it use to be
Saying few words to people in the house
Good night my Délima
May I stand away from others to get near you ?

Well ! yes, she said, with a great pleasure
If you come to me, it is but to laugh
You have betrayed Fidèle with taking about love
For my little Joséphine I will always love

They say I am coward, drunkard and lazy
Wine in my bottle, I will drink when I want

You don’t see much grease on my cover
For it is always clean, always well looking

One must go and see the chap laying in his bed
Saying in a loud voice it is time to withdraw
People in the country side, let’s quit the suburb
Let us go from here because it’s day time soon

I don’t like to be told a second time
I was telling Françoise are you coming with me ?
I shall go my way as usual
I will go bareheaded, my hat in my hand

There was nothing else but complaining to the priest
Saying that the parish was upset
It was distressed, bowled over
It’s in the bush of London where we can see drunk men
