Music
Qu'il Fait Bon Vivre
Ma Mere Chantait Toujours

Refrain A
Ma mère chantait toujours, la, la, la,
Une vieille chanson d'amour, que je to chante à mon tour,
Ma fille, to grandiras, et puis to t'en iras,
Mais un beau jour, to to souviendras à ton tour 
De cette chanson là.

Refrain B
Ma mère chantait toujours, la, la, la, la,
Une vieille chanson d'amour, que je to chante à mon tour,
Ma fille to grandiras, et puffs to t'en iras,
Mais un beau jour, to la chanteras à ton tour, 
En souvenir de moi, en souvenir de moi.
