Everybody look at me,
Happy girlie, you will see,
I've got someone nice, oh, gee!
Oh, joy, what bliss!
Just the treasure that I need,
Pure as gold and guaranteed,
Is he handsome? Yes, indeed!
Let me tell you this:
I found a new baby,
A sweet honey boy;
My fashion-plate baby
Has thrilled me with joy!
His new way of lovin'
Has made me his slave;
His sweet turtle dovin'
Is all that I crave!
Sweetest kiss, what a kiss, full of bliss, can't resist, somehow!
Tells me lies, but he's wise, naughty eyes mesmerize, I vow and how!
I don't mean maybe,
I just had to fall;
I found a new baby,
A new baby, that's all!
I found a new baby,
A sweet honey boy;
My fashion-plate baby
Has thrilled me with joy!
His new way of lovin'
Has made me his slave;
His sweet turtle dovin'
Is all that I crave!
Sweetest kiss, what a kiss, full of bliss, can't resist, somehow!
Tells me lies, but he's wise, naughty eyes mesmerize, I vow and how!
I don't mean maybe,
I just had to fall;
I found a new baby,
A new baby, that's all!
Une version chantée que je trouve assez ignoble parJoséphine Baker , c'est la rencontre de l'anglais et de l'accent parigot début du siècle. C'est marrant mais pas tres agréable a écouter...
Voila la grille
Il y a quatre versions par Django et associés :
avec Franck Big Boy Goudie en aout 35
avec Stephane Grappelli and his Hot Four : Baro Ferret, Tony Rovira, Joseph Reinhardt et Django en octobre 35
juste Django et Stéphane en avril 1937
et une seconde version aussi de 1937
Et quelques autres versions sympas en 78 tours :
Par les Chicago Rythm Kings, rien d'exceptionnel mais un bon swing
Et enfin une super version a la voix par les Mills Brothers
Voila et petit ps si vous avez du temps a perdre et que vous aimez les vieux trucs, il y a des petits trésors a dénicher sur ce site
