Lyrics

ME FE TAN PLIJI
 
me fe tan pliji 
me fe tan pliji 
me fe tan pliji 
  
I’d like to swim in the ocean 
like to swim in the ocean
like to be in the deep blue sea
 
but all i have is a river
all i have is a river
much to wild and to cold is he
 
the ocean is far away
the ocean is far away
it’s all the way down in marseille
 
and if i jumped in the river
if i jumped in the river
he’d take me down to the deep blue sea
 
what i have ain’t what i want
what i want i do not have
what i have ain’t what i want
what i want i do not have
 
hey now i float down thøe river
now i float in down the river
who thought how much fun this could be
 
i want to start this all over
want to start this all over
go back to the top of the valley
 
hey marseille see you next season
i found myself a reason
i found myself a good reason to stay
 
hey marseille see you next year 
i think i’m gonna  stay right here 
gonna stay right here in my valais dear
 
me fe tan pliji - ovalais bavalais
me fe tan pliji - ovalais bavalais
