[Verse 1]
Elle diDsait que l'AmGour c'est comme Cles piraDnhas
Ça Dvaut le déGtours mais ça Cfait des déDgats
DDans son GouEmgou aux couCleurs arc-en-Dciel
DElle était Embelle belle Ccomme le soDleil
Elle Dvendait des Gjean's des griCgris des colDliers
FaiDsait la cuiGsine pour les Cpauvres du quarDtier
DDans sa bouEmtique les enCfants étaient Drois
DC'est toute l'AEmfrique qui leur Couvrait ses Dbras...
