La longue horde de charriots
Trace des sillons dans la terre
Et le galop de ces cheveaux
Dans un grand bruit de sabots
Fait tourbillonner la poussière
Ya Ya Hue
Les hommes de tous les pays
Qui conduisent ces attelages
Ont quitté familles et amis
Et d'un élan sont partis
Courant au devant d'un mirage
Hi Han Hue
Claque ton fouet frappe ta bête
Marche ou crève mais non de non
Arrange-toi pour être en tête
Et tomber sur le bon filon
On a trouvé de l'or disait les journaux
En première page et le cri se répercutait
Ricochait et s'élançait de ville en ville et en villages
Hue Hue donc
Hommes simples ou aventuriers
Le coeur débordant d'espérence
Partirent en tête pour toucher, pour voir et pour posséder
Ce qu'ils croyaient être leur chance
Ya Ya Hue
Claque ton fouet frappe ta bête
Marche ou crève mais non de non
Arrange-toi pour être en tête
Et tomber sur le bon filon
Marche forcée, course éperdue
Faut avancer coûte que coûte
Très peu arriverons au but
Affaiblis, déçus et rompus
Beaucoup tomberont sur les routes
Ya Ya Hue
Tous les traîneurs qui crèveront
Iront à la fosse commune
Et très peu s'en retourneront
Riche et remplis d'illusions
Après avoir trouvé fortune
Ya Hue Ya
Claque ton fouet frappe ta bête
Marche ou crève mais non de non
Arrange-toi pour être en tête
Et tomber sur le bon filon

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
