Lyrics: Anon

L'autrier priai de danser deux fillettes.
L'une me dit: "Je ne sais qui vous êtes";
Je lui réponds: "Madame, j'ai argent".
"Alors", me dit la mignonne au corps gent,
"Dansons, dansons puisqu'avons des sonnettes".

So the other day I'm asking two sheilas to dance.
One's like: "I don't know who you are";
I'm like: "I've got wonga, miss".
The well fit bird tells me:
"So we're dancing, now we've a heads-up".
