JIMMY BUFFETT - Autour Du Rocher lyrics

Jimmy Buffett, Henri Ledee, Leon Ledee, Marcel Limodin, Jean-Jacques Kraif

Mes 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 rocher

This 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 stopped

There were pirates from the Indies

There were models from Paris

There were locals and New Yorkers

And the Brazilian Navy

By mini-moke and scooters

In cabs and stolen cars

Came the creatures of the evening

From St. Martin and from Mars

Alors, 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 poussee

Girl at the pool table

puts on a show for free

They were bivouacked in the bathroom

By the hot tub near the sea

Every night at midnight

Seems the devil took control

And the hill became a parking lot

Fueled by rock 'n' roll

They were talking by the cannon

But I couldn't believe my ears

The Russian had plutonium

The sailor wanted beers

They shook hands in the moonlight

And broke out a big cigar

Just business as usual

Beneath the tropic stars

Alors(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 poussee

It was better than a painting

At le Musee de Beaux Arts

And simply what we did for fun

Back in the old St. Barts

Then the glitz and all the glamour

Hit like a hurricane

Or maybe we just all grew up

But it never was the same

The gendarmes finally closed the joint

And the fire it did the rest

But on New Year's Eve of '91

We sang the last request

We 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 poussee

Alors. 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
