Lol, I first saw this video while my kids were watching Pee Wees playhouse on Netflix (thanks kids, for another crappy memory dredged) while a catchy and fun song, one has to wonder:what in the hell is he singing about? Any french speakers in the house?
Who remembers when this was on Pee Wee?! http://bedazzled.blogs.com

The refrain does not mean anything. The beginning is : Let's have a good whiskey and dance Let's have a good whiskey and dance We will forget our troubles Dancing the tamoure Dancing the tamoure all the night. Tamoure is a French Polynesian dance. I had a look and it is from 1962. I never heard it before today. You will not believe it, but he continues to sing and he will participate this year at a music tour with several singers of the 60's/70's in France.
