France Gall
Ella, Elle L'a


see'est comme une gaiete
Comme un sourire
Quelque chose dans la voix
Qui parait nous dire "viens"
Qui nous fait sentir etrangement bien

see'est comme toute l'histoire
do peuple noir
Qui se balance
Entre l'amour et l'desespoir
Quelque chose qui danse en toi
Si tu l'as, tu l'as

Ella, elle l'a
Ce je n'sais quoi
Que d'autres n'ont pas
Qui nous met dans un drole d'etat
Ella, elle l'a
Ella, elle l'a
Ou-ou ou-ou ou-ou ou
Elle a, ou-ou ou-ou ou-ou ou, cette drole de voix
Elle a, ou-ou ou-ou ou-ou ou, cette drole de joie
Ce don do ciel qui la rend belle

Ella, elle l'a
Ella, elle l'a
Elle a, ou-ou ou-ou ou-ou ou
Ella, elle l'a
Elle a, ou-ou ou-ou ou-ou ou

Elle a ce tout petit supplement d'ame
Cet indefinissable charme
Cette petite flamme

Tape sur des tonneaux
Sur des pianos
Sur tout ce que dieu peut te mettre entre les mains
Montre ton rire ou ton chagrin
Mais que tu n'aies rien, que tu sois roi
Que tu cherches encore les pouvoirs qui dorment en toi
Tu vois ca ne s'achete pas
Quand tu l'as tu l'as

Ella, elle l'a
Ce je n'sais quoi
Que d'autres n'ont pas
Qui nous met dans un drole d'etat
Ella, elle l'a
Ella, elle l'a ...

    General Comment:This song is about Ella Fitzgerald's natural beauty and talent, as well as saying that black people have a natural born talent in them.

    General Comment:Beautiful song, there's a more erotic version that starts with heavy breathing, very sexy.

    A rough translation (made by some auto translator):

    It is like a cheerfulness
    Like a smile
    Something in the voice
    Who appears to say to us come
    Who makes us smell curiously well
    It is like all the history
    Of the black people
    Who balances himself
    Between the love and despair
    Something which dances in you
    If you have it, you have it

    Ella, it has it
    This I do not know what
    That others do not have
    Who puts to us in funny state
    Ella, it has it
    Ella, it has it
    This funny of voice
    This funny of joy
    This gift of the sky
    Who makes it beautiful
    Ella, it has it
    Ella, it has it

    It has
    This very small supplement of heart
    This indefinable charm
    This small flame

    Type
    On barrels
    On pianos
    On all that God can put to you between the hands
    Show your laughter or your sorrow
    But that you do not have anything
    That you would be a king
    That you still seek the capacities which sleep in you
    You see Ca does not buy yourself
    When you have it, you have it

    Ella, it has it
    This I do not know what
    That others do not have
    Who puts to us in funny state
    Ella, it has it
    Ella, it has it
    This funny of voice
    This funny of joy
    This gift of the sky
    Who makes it beautiful
    Ella, it has it...
