We’re driving slowly
We’re rolling elegantly through
The French part of our country
On and over the hills
My little sister next to me
Playing with a rubber band
Killing time with nothing on her hands
What could be her secret
I am the child
Moaning inpatiently in the back
With a big mouth and way to loud
Asking are we there yet?
I’m so impatient
My mother puts a record on
Django and the hot club de France
Featuring Stephane Grapelli
The old black bmw
Filling up with gypsy swing
I have to say it broke my heart
When I heard the master play
And I don’t understand
How they can play so fast and light
But it gets me and I’m quiet now
Sweet life continues in the breeze
