Re: valse que me porte en terre

Yeah, that does sound familiar, but can't place it. Well, here's what I get, probably should get Marc to check it:

Orphelin(?), ouais, notre papa,
il a quitté y a pas trop long temps.
Moi, j'connais on va s'ennuie,
t'en aller de porter ouais, m'enterre.

T'apres quitter pour t'en aller,
t'en aller, me porte (?) enterre,
Moi, j'connais on va s'ennuie,
ouais, la valse que me porte en terre.

Re: valse que me porte en terre

Hi Roger and Bryan. I know two différents songs with similar title :
La valse qui me porte dans ma tombe (the waltz that carried me to my grave) by Joe Falcon.
La valse qui me porte en terre (the waltz that carries me to the groud) by Paul Daigle.

Here's the Paul's version :

Orphelin, ouais, notre papa,
Il a quitté y a pas longtemps.
Moi, j'connais on va s'ennuyer,
S'en aller de porter, ouais en terre.

T'après m’quitter pour t'en aller,
T'en aller, mais dans la terre.
Moi, j'connais on va s'ennuyer,
C’est, la valse, oh ye yaille, qui m’porte en terre.

Re: valse que me porte en terre

Thanks, Marc. I knew I was close but there were a couple hiccups I wasn't sure about.
