Петербургская музыкальная культурка - 4
(Предыдущие выпуски см. тут: первый, второй, третий).
В Сети нашлось ещё одно вокальное произведение, где упоминается Петроград - фокстрот «Катенька», написанный в США:
George Olsen and His Orchestra - Katinka
Вот текст песни:
Out in Russia there are lots of Russians
and you'll find that each one speaks in Russian
There in Petrograd
lived a Russ who had
a Russian maiden who was called Katinka
Then one day she heard about the Charleston
from a Yankee boy she learned to Charleston
She left Petrograd
with this Yankee lad
left her Russian sadly crying:
My sweet Katinka oh where can she be?
I loved her so
how could she go?
Who thought Katinka would pack up on me?
It was that Charlesburg I know.
She would Kazotsky
with me ev'ry day
but she went nutsky
for that hey hey oy vey
that hotsky music just led her astray
and I lost Katinka that way!
When a Russian sings he sings in Russian
Ev'rything they do, they do in Russian
Patriotic land
hard to understand and
when in Rome they even act like Russians
Ev'ry Russian sure loves his Kazotsky
not a one would give up his Kazotsky
between you and me
now it's plain to see
why this Russian keeps on crying:
My sweet Katinka oh where can she be?
I'm rushin here
I'm rushin there
I see that she pulled a rush act on me,
I'm rushin most ev'rywhere
Fifteen kavotskys
she earned ev'ry day
till she went nutsky
for that hey hey oy vey
fifteen kavotskys is ten cents a day
guess that's why Katinka's away
My sweet Katinka oh where can she be?
I'm lookin high I'm lookin low
How she could tear up a herring with me
noone could beat her I know
She got those Cossacks
to dance in that way
Imagine a Litvak going
hey hey oy vey
I lost my hair and my beard's turning gray
since my sweet Katinka's away
Его дальнейшую судьбу (переделки на идиш, финский и русский) прослеживает А. Мальгин в записи «История одного фокстрота».
Добавлю к этому также ещё одну переделку (точнее, пародию) на идиш. Там, правда, речь уже не о Катеньке и Петрограде, а о несравненных достоинствах конфекциона от варшавской компании Боймвол на Кармелитской улице :-)
Дополнения к подборке приветствуются.
