ALOUETTE  There is also a Ukrainian version, in the minor,
probably made by Dave and Andy Spalding of Edmonton, mid '70's:


cho: Alouettski, gentil alouettski
     Alouettski, je te plumerai - hoy!


Verse
Je te plumerai la tetski (je te...)
Et la tetski (et la...)
Alouettski (alouettski)
Oh-oh-oh-oh

(similarly:)
la nezekoff
le coupski, etc.  JB
