↓ LYRICS ↓
Wah-oh, wah-oh
Wah-oh, wah-oh, wah-oh, wah-oh
Wah-oh, wah-oh
Wah-oh, wah-oh, wah-oh, wah-oh
Sittin' by de ocean
The wave she feel so sad
Sittin' by de ocean
The wave she feel so sad
You ain't got de money
To get you back to Trinidad
Fine calypso woman
She cook him shrimp and rice
Fine calypso woman
She cook him shrimp and rice
Those yankee hot dogs
Don't treat the stomach very nice
In Trinidad, a dollar buy
Papaya juice, banana pie
Six coconut, a female goat
And plenty fish to full de boat
A bushel bread, a bottle of wine
And all de town, she come to dine
But there is bad, a dollar buy
A cup of coffee, ham on rye
Woo
Me throat she sick from necktie
Me feet she hurt from shoes
His pocket full of empty
He's got the Calypso blues
These yankee girl give him a scare
Is black de roots, and blonde de hair
Her eyelash false, her face is paint
And perhaps not de girl she ain't
She jitterbug when she should waltz
I even think her name was false
Calypso girl is good a lot
Is what you see, is what you got
So sittin' at de ocean
Your heart, she feel so sad
You ain't got de money
To get you back to Trinidad
Sittin' by de ocean
Your heart, she feel so sad
Because you ain't got no money
To take get you back to Trinidad
Wah-oh, wah-oh
Wah-oh, wah-oh, wah-oh, wah-oh
Wah-oh, wah-oh
Wah-oh, wah-oh, wah-oh, wah-oh
Wah-oh, wah-oh
Wah-oh, wah-oh, wah-oh, wah-oh
Woo
Wah-oh, wah-oh
Wah-oh, wah-oh, wah-oh, wah-oh

Ma mamie fétiche venue de Trinidad, grande dame du calypso aux 800 chansons ! Ce titre est un incontournable de Nat King Cole de 1949 : comme souvent Calypso Rose nous parle des difficultés de la vie, racisme, combats féministes... Et comme toujours, elle nous fait danser ! Ca déconfine sérieusement la tête et les oreilles. Bonne découvert à vous, au plaisir d'écouter vos trésors musicaux. Eloi

[@MaryannaChanteuse]

Calypso Rose que je compare à Miriam Makeba chante pour la paix avec des paroles engagées pour dénoncer les injustices sociales. Calypso Rose ou la "reine" du calypso, c'est une musique de carnaval originaire de Trinité-et-Tobago que cette pétillante chanteuse utilise pour faire danser les foules mais aussi : femme de combat, qui a vaincu un cancer, elle utilise sa musique non seulement pour apporter "de la joie" aux gens mais aussi faire avancer la cause des femmes.. "Far From Home" la chanson qui a remporté la 32ème cérémonie des Victoires de la musique 2017 et qui fût récompensée, vendredi 10 février, par le prix du meilleur album de musique du monde ... d'où cette artiste qui fût aussi nommée "la fille venue de la petite île" ..voyage à travers le monde..et sera la première femme à remporter (plusieurs fois) le concours de calypso national, qui sera rebaptisé dans les années 1970 "Calypso Monarch" pour remplacer "le masculin" "Calypso King".. cette musique venue de son pays qu'elle incarne désormais mieux que tout autre.. !!
Calypso King" est aussi une reprise de l’inoubliable Nat King Cole et fait partie de son premier single de "So Calypso", un album de reprises consacrés à ceux qui ont forgé sa musique : Aretha Franklin, The Melodians ou encore Angélique Kidjo.

Véritable hymne pour les femmes trinidadiennes confrontées à la misère et au racisme après leur arrivée à New York, on comprend pourquoi la native de Trinité-et-Tobago a décidé de dépoussiérer ce vieux classique de Nat King Cole. En insufflant son héritage reggae à la version très minimaliste du classique du crooner des 50’s, Calypso Rose prouve encore une fois son engagement politique de la manière la plus réjouissante possible.

Wa-oo-oo, wa-oo-oo,
Wa-oo wa-oo wa-oo wa-ay,
Wa-oo-oo, wa-oo-oo,
Wa-oo wa-oo wa-oo wa-ay,
Sittin' by de ocean
The way she feel so sad,
Sittin' by de ocean,
The way she feel so sad,
You ain’t got de money
To take she back to Trinidad.
Fine calypso woman,
She cookin shrimp and rice,
Fine calypso woman,
She cookin shrimp and rice...
Those chunky hot dogs
Doh treat yuh stomach very nice.
In Trinidad, a dollar buy
Papaya juice, banana pie,
Six coconut, a female goat,
An' plenty fish to fill de boat.
A bushel bread, a bottle of wine,
An' all in town, she came to dine.
But here is bad, a dollar buy
A cup of coffee, ham on rye.
He thought she sipped from nectar,
He feed she hurt from juice,
His pocket full of empty,
He’s got the Calypso blues.
Dese jokey girls give him big scare,
Is black de root, is blonde de hair.
Her eyelash false, her face is pink,
And perhaps not the girl she ain't!
She jitterbug when she should waltz,
I even think her name was false.
Calypso girl is good a lot,
Is what you see, is what you got.
Sittin' at de ocean
You have she feel so sad,
You ain’t got no money
To take she back to Trinidad.
Sittin' by de ocean,
You have she feel so sad,
Because you ain’t got no money
To take she back to Trinidad.
Wa-oo-oo, wa-oo-oo,
Wa-oo wa-oo wa-oo wa-ay,
Wa-oo-oo, wa-oo-oo,
Wa-oo wa-oo wa-oo wa-ay
