Chicago

Frédéric François

Original text

Chicago Chicago Chicago

Quand je vais revoir mon vieux grand-mère à Chicago

Il sort ses histoires son révolver son borsalino

Et deux verres sur une table et mi-vrai mi-fable

Il me raconte la prohibition

Alors moi je me vois près de lui à Chicago

Jouant toute la nuit au casino

Alors moi je me vois près de lui à Chicago

Tout le monde m’appelle Frankie Borsalino

Chicago Chicago Chicago

Dans un vieux sous-sol près du palais il se cachait

Fabriquait l’alcool qu’il revendait au juge de paix

Un peu hors la loi un rien de maffia

Voilà pourquoi il est toujours là

En mille neuf cent vingt quand il a quitté le pays

C’est tellement le vin qu’il fabriquait était trahi

A peine débarqué sans savoir parler

C’est de whisky qu’il s’est occupé

Chicago Chicago Chicago

Song translation

chicago chicago chicago

When I go see my old grandma in Chicago

He pulls out his stories his gun his borsalino

And two glasses on a table and half true half fable

He tells me about prohibition

So I see myself next to him in Chicago

Gambling all night at the casino

So I see myself next to him in Chicago

Everybody call me Frankie Borsalino

chicago chicago chicago

In an old basement near the palace he was hiding

Manufactured alcohol which he sold to the justice of the peace

A little outlaw nothing mafia

That's why he's still here

In nineteen twenty when he left the country

It's so much the wine he made was betrayed

Barely landed without knowing how to speak

It was whiskey that he dealt with
