TROUBLE

Pour le stage SOLO à choisir

If you're looking for trouble,
you came to the right place.
If you're looking for trouble,
just look right in my face.
I was born standing up,
and talking back,
my daddy was a green eyed mountain jack.
I don't look for trouble,
but I never ran.
I don't take no orders,
from no kind of man.
I'm only made out of flesh blood and bone,
if you want to start a rumble,
don't you try it all alone

Because I'm evil,
my middle name is misery.
I said I'm evil,
so don't you mess around with me

If you're looking for trouble,
you came to the right place.
If you're looking for trouble,
just look right in my face.
I was born standing up,
and talking back,
my daddy was a green eyed mountain jack.

Because I'm evil,
my middle name is misery.
I said I'm evil,
so don't you mess around with me

Avec Elvis the pelvis ...


Pour notre Johnny, en 1962 ,ça devient "La Bagarre" !

Si vous chercher la bagarre 
Vous êtes venus à la bonne place 
Si vous chercher la bagarre 
Regardez-moi bien en face 
Et, je n'aime pas beaucoup 
Qu'on me remonte

J'avoue que la bagarre 
Je ne suis pas contre 
Ca me fait pas peur 
Je dirais même 
Que j'aime cogner 
C'est un plaisir 
D'accord, les gars 
J'vais vous soigner 

Si pas pour la bagarre 
Alors c'est pour mon fric 
Vous tombez bien blague à part 
Sur moi, j'ai plus d'une brique 
Mais avant il faudra 
Passer par moi 



Je vous prends un par un 
Ou bien tous les trois à la fois 
Ca me fait pas peur 
Je dirais même 
Que j'aime cogner 
C'est un plaisir 
D'accord, les gars 
J'vais vous soigner


Allez ! les images ! (1963)

LOVE ME / DON'T

Pour le stage SOLO à choisir

Treat me like a fool,
Treat me mean and cruel,
But love me.
Wring my faithful heart,
Tear it all apart,
But love me.
If you ever go,
Darling, I'll be oh so lonely
I'll be sad and blue,
Crying over you, dear only.
I would beg and steal
Just to feel your heart
Beatin' close to mine
Well, if you ever go,
Darling, I'll be oh so lonely
I'll be sad and blue,
Crying over you, dear only.

Beatin' close to mine
Well, if you ever go,
Darling, I'll be oh so lonely
Beggin' on knees,
All I ask is please, please love me
Oh yeah

Don't, don't, that's what you say
Each time that I hold you this way,
When I feel like this and I want to hold you,
baby, don't say don't.

Don't, don't leave my embrace
For here in my arms is your place
When the night grows cold and I want to hold you,
baby, don't say don't.

If you think that this is just a game
I'm playing
If you think that I don't mean
ev'ry word I'm saying
Don't, don't, don't, don't,
Don't feel that way
I'm your love and yours I will stay
This you can believe
I will never leave you
Heave knows I won't
Baby, don't say don't

FOOLS FALL IN LOVE

Pour le stage SOLO à choisir

Fools fall in love in a hurry
Fools give their hearts much too soon
Just put in two bars of stardust
Just hang out one silly moon
Oh! They've got their love torches burning
When they should be playing it cool
I used to laugh but now I'm the same
Take a look at a brand new fool

Shake the hand of a brand new fool

Fools fall in love just like schoolgirls
Blinded by rose colored dreams
They build their castles on wishes
With only rainbows for beams
Oh! They're making plans for the future
When they should be right back in school
I used to laugh but now I'm the same
Take a look at a brand new fool
Alright!

They've got their love torches burning
When they should be playing it cool
I used to laugh but now I'm the same
Take a look at a brand new fool
Take a look at a brand new fool



Allez un petit coup d'Elvis !

POISON IVY
Pour le stage voir la polyphonie de garçons jointe en mail

Les Coasters : beaucoup plus tard ... mais toujours en forme !

She comes on like a rose

you can look but you'd better not touch

Poison Ivy
Poison Ivy
Late at night while you're sleeping
Poison Ivy comes creeping around

She's pretty as a daisy
but look out man she's crazy
she'll really do you in
if you let her get under your skin

Measles make you mumpy
and mumps will make you lumpy
and chicken pox will make you

A common cold will fool you
and whooping cough can cool ya
But Poison Ivy lord will make you itch

Your gonna need an ocean
of calamine lotion
You'll be scratching like a hound
the minute you start to mess around

Poison Ivy

Late at night while you're sleeping
Poison Ivy comes creeping around

Measles make you mumpy

and chicken pox will make you

A common cold will fool you
and whooping cough can cool ya
But Poison Ivy lord will make you itch

Your gonna need an ocean
of calamine lotion
You'll be scratching like a hound
the minute you start to mess around

DON JUAN

Pour le stage SOLO à choisir

The house we moved in
The house we grooved in
The way we waltzed across those marble floors
You used to look delux
In your white tie an' tux
Up in that big white house
That is no longer yours

Don Juan, your money is gone
And when your money is gone, Don
Your babe is gone
Don Juan, your babe is gone
Stiff upper lip now, Don
You have to carry on

The yatch we sailed on
The yatch we wailed on
I got to tell you, Don
I loved that yatch
You used to look so cute
In your white sailor suit
Up on that big white yatch
That you no longer got

Don Juan, your money is gone
And when your money is gone, Don
Your babe is go-one
Don Juan, your babe is gone
Stiff upper lip now, Don
You have to carry on

Don Juan, when you had money
Don Juan, I was your honey
But Don, it's gone
And so...
Am I!

The jet we cruised on
The jet we boozed on
That was the highest height we've ever flown
Your kisses were so sweet
At thirty thousand feet
Up on that big white jet
That you no longer own

Don Juan, your money is gone
And when your money is gone, Don
Aha, babe is gone
Don Juan, your babe is gone
Stiff upper lip now, Don
You have to carry on

Stiff... lip...
You thought I was saying something else, didn't ya?
Maybe now that I got some money, I'm gonna get somebody to drag this chair around.

SHOPPIN' FOR CLOTHES

KEEP FORGETTIN'

Pour le stage SOLO à choisir

I keep forgetting you don't love me no more
I keep forgetting you don't want me no more
I keep forgetting that you told me that you
Didn't want me around any more
But these stupid old feet
Just head for your street
Like they've done so many times before
And this stuborn old fist
On the end of my wrist
Keeps a knocking on your front door

I keep forgetting you don't love me no more
I keep forgetting you don't want me no more
I keep forgetting bout those heartbreaking nights
And those heartbreaking things
That you said
Though I know in my heart
We're drifting apart
I can't believe that our love is dead
Though it's plain as can be
That you're finished with me
I just can't get it through my head

ON BROADWAY

Pour le stage voir la polyphonie jointe en mail

They say the neon lights are bright
On Broadway
They say there's always magic in the air
But when you're walkin' down the street
And you ain't had enough to eat
The glitter rubs right off and you're nowhere

They say the chicks are somethin' else
On Broadway
But lookin' at them just gives me the blues
'Cause how ya gonna make some time
When all you got is one thin dime
And one thin dime won't even shine your shoes

They say that I won't last too long
On Broadway
I'll catch a Greyhound bus for home they say
But they're dead wrong, I know they are
'Cause I can play this here guitar
And I won't quit till I'm star
On Broadway

But they're dead wrong, I know they are
'Cause I can play this here guitar
And I won't quit till I'm star
On Broadway

D.W. WASHBURN

D W Washburn, I heard a sweet voice say,
D W Washburn, this is your lucky day.
A hot bowl of soup is waiting,
A hot bowl of soup and a shave.
D W Washburn, we picked you to save.

Can't you hear the fleugal horn?
Can't you hear the bell?
Even you can be reborn,
you naughty neer-do-well.
If you don't get outta that gutter,
before the next big rain.
D W Washburn: you're gonna wash right down the drain.

Up!Up! C'mon get up! Get up off the street,
If you can only make it to your hands and knees
I know you can make it to your feet, oh yeah.

D W Washburn, I said to myself.
D W Washburn, why don't they go save somebody else?
You see, I got no job to go to.
I don't work and I don't get paid.
I got a bottle of wine and I'm feeling fine-
And I do believe I've got it made.
I'd like to thanks all you good people
for coming to my aid.
But I'm D. W. Washburn and I believe I've got it made.

SAVED

I used to smoke
I used to drink
I used to smoke, drink and dance the hootchie-koo
I used to smoke and drink, smoke and drink and dance the hootchie-koo
It's true
Now I'm standing on this corner
Praying for me and you

Because I'm saved
Saved saved saved
People, let me tell you about Kingdom come
You know I'm saved
Saved
I can preach  until you're deaf and dumb
I'm in that soul savin' army
Beatin' on that big bass drum

I used to cuss
I used to fuss
I used to cuss, fuss and boogie all night long
I used to cuss and fuss, cuss and fuss and boogie all night long
But now I'm standing on this corner
I know right from wrong

Because I'm saved
Saved saved saved
People, let me tell you about Kingdom come
You know I'm saved
Saved
I said I'm gonna preach it 'til you're deaf and dumb

I used to lie
I used to cheat
I used to lie, cheat and step on people's feet
I used to lie and cheat, lie and cheat and step on people's feet
Now I'm standing on this corner
Salvation is my beat

That's why I'm saved
I am saved
People, let me tell you about Kingdom come
You know I'm saved
Saved
I said I'm gonna preach it 'til you're deaf and dumb
