Timal, ça fait un bail, que j'suis pas parti au pays
Voir le reste de la famille et les cousins qu'ont grandi
Après huit heures de charter, me voilà enfin sur mes terres J'suis déboussolé par le décalage horaire
Accueilli par un homme d'affaires,
laisse-moi porter tes sacs frère
Direction la Basse-Terre, Pointe Noire la case à grand-mère
On 'ti punch comme tradition, j'ai dit: "Non merci tonton"
Et lui m'a répondu: "Tu t'crois encore ne métropole, garçon"
2, 3 jours après, j'me suis mis dans le bain
un p'tit caleçon de bain, pour les plages et les friapins
Pour faim exotique j'ai dégusté les plats typiques
Colombo, court-bouillon poisson et cabritt
Pour fêter mon arrivée, seul, j'suis parti zouker
Kolé serrer, sur le dernier tube de l'été
Touriste de passage "Gué ti français la" pour le voisinage
Et toujours cette question, "Alors à quand le mariage?"
Cette manie de maquerellage, ça date depuis l'esclavage
Au temps de la rue Case-Nègre, les racines de mon village
J'étais venu pour me reposer, mon séjour trop mouvementé
Y avait trop de chose à faire j'ai pas vu le temps passer
{au Refrain}
Quand j'suis arrivé on m'a dit "Bienvenue au pays"
On m'a dit aussi que j'avais perdu les traditions du pays
Je ravis de revoir les cousins et les cousines qui ont vieilli
Trop longtemps en France je crois bien que ma place se trouve ici
Boissart, Bergevin ça c'est mon bled cousin
Visite de la Soufrière en passant que ti chemin
Dans les transports en commun serrés tous les uns contre les autres
Sur un air de biguine pour aller d'un point à l'autre
Ici la drogue légale c'est la Zeb locale
Sous un soleil tropical tu risquerais de lui faire mal
Allongé sur une des plages sous un palmier
En train de siroter un jus de noix de coco glacé
En pensant à la famille élu tonton des îles
Mais qui coté ou ko vin A-P j'crois bien que j'viens des Antilles
Aéroport du raijt les vacances sont terminées
L'avion va décoller, j'suis le dernier à embarquer
