Quand Jimmy dit [English translation]

He started his band

Two years ago barely

An unemployed person defeated

The son of a pharmacist

A bassist from Toulouse

A drummer of Harlem

A mixture of jazz and blues

New Wave, African version

He sold his mob

And his leather bomber jacket.

Sacrificed his fashion

Music without concessions

Since the time he rowed

Over the grit at the bottom of a cave

I want to tell you, ladies and gentlemen

That on of these days

It's going to be serious

When Jimmy said "What'd I say?

I love you baby"

It's like who said

All of the province that sings in English

When Jimmy says "What'd I say?

Oh baby come on."

It's like who said

All of the province that walks in Weston.

He sings in the countries

In Saturday

In Rock'n'Roll bananas

Trips in vans

Third rate hotels

He has it all, and ever more

For finishing Rolling Stone!

I love his little metal mouth

And I follow him in his gallery

And I will follow him always

Him, I cannot undo

I caressed his jeans

I slept on his guitar

Each time I imagine him

It makes me very bizarre

When Jimmy said "What'd I say?

I love you baby"

It's like who said

All of the province that sings in English

When Jimmy says "What'd I say?

Oh baby come on."

It's like who said

All of the province that walks in Weston.

He sold his mob

And his leather bomber jacket.

Sacrificed his fashion

Music without concessions

I would know for a longtime

That he left Montbéliard

And if Paris take him to me

IT is that it is truly a star

When Jimmy said "What'd I say?

I love you baby"

It's like who said

All of the province that sings in English

When Jimmy says "What'd I say?

Oh baby come on."

It's like who said

All of the province that walks in Weston.
