Thanks, Greg: my favourite song, and sillier than I could have hoped for!

Saut crapaud ta queue va bruler
Prends courage a'va repousser
C'est Jacques Petrin pas rien sur la tete
En revenant du Lac Charles en mangeant des bananes

Jump toad your tail will burn
Take courage it'll grow back
Its Jacques Petrin, with no hat on
coming back from Lake Charles eating bananas

I think it loses some of the essential poetry in translation!

I wonder if someone could help me out with the words to Saut Crapaud, performed by Columbus Fruge on the Anthology of American Folk Music? My French is rather poor, so a translation would also be useful!

Thanks a lot,

Peter
