Paroles
1. Shanghai chicken grows so tall;
Few days, few days,
Almost reach the top of the wall,
And I’m goin’ home.
I have a home over yonder;
Few days, few days,
I have a home over yonder,
and I’m goin’ home.
2. Great big fish they call a whale;
Few days, few days,
Swallowed Jonah head and tail
and I’m goin’ home.
Traduction
La poule de Shangaï a tellement grossi
En peu de jours, en peu de jours,
Elle a presque rejoint le mur
Et moi je rentre à la maison.
