J'ai plaqué mon chêne
Comme un saligaud
Mon copain le chêne
Mon alter ego
On était du même bois
Un peu rustique un peu brut
Dont on fait n'importe quoi
Sauf naturell'ment les flûtes
J'ai maint'nant des frênes
Des arbres de judée
Tous de bonne graine
De haute futaie
Mais toi, tu manque à l'appel
Ma vieille branche de campagne
Mon seul arbre de Noël
Mon mât de cocagne
Auprès de mon arbre
Je vivais heureux
J'aurais jamais dû
M'éloigner d' mon arbre
Auprès de mon arbre
Je vivais heureux
J'aurais jamais dû
Le quitter des yeux
Je suis un pauvr' type
J'aurais plus de joie
J'ai jeté ma pipe
Ma vieill' pipe en bois
Qu'avait fumé sans s' fâcher
Sans jamais m'brûlé la lippe
L'tabac d'la vache enragée
Dans sa bonn' vieill' têt' de pipe
J'ai des pip's d'écume
Ornées de fleurons
De ces pip's qu'on fume
En levant le front
Mais j'retrouv'rai plus ma foi
Dans mon c?ur ni sur ma lippe
Le goût d'ma vieill' pipe en bois
Sacré nom d'un' pipe
Auprès de mon arbre
Je vivais heureux
J'aurais jamais dû
M'éloigner d' mon arbre
Auprès de mon arbre
Je vivais heureux
J'aurais jamais dû
Le quitter des yeux
Le surnom d'infâme
Me va comme un gant
D'avecques ma femme
J'ai foutu le camp
Parc' que depuis tant d'années
C'était pas un' sinécure
De lui voir tout l'temps le nez
Au milieu de la figure
Je bas la campagne
Pour dénicher la
Nouvelle compagne
Valant celles-là
Qui, bien sûr, laissait beaucoup
Trop de pierr's dans les lentilles
Mais se pendait à mon cou
Quand j'perdais mes billes
Auprès de mon arbre
Je vivais heureux
J'aurais jamais dû
M'éloigner d' mon arbre
Auprès de mon arbre
Je vivais heureux
J'aurais jamais dû
Le quitter des yeux
J'avais un' mansarde
Pour tout logement
Avec des lézardes
Sur le firmament
Je l'savais par c?ur depuis
Et pour un baiser la course
J'emmenais mes bell's de nuits
Faire un tour sur la grande ourse
J'habit' plus d' mansarde
Il peut désormais
Tomber des hall'bardes
Je m'en bats l'?il mais
Mais si quelqu'un monte aux cieux
Moins que moi j'y paie des prunes
Y a cent sept ans qui dit mieux,
Qu' j'ai pas vu la lune
Auprès de mon arbre
Je vivais heureux
J'aurais jamais dû
M'éloigner d' mon arbre
Auprès de mon arbre
Je vivais heureux
J'aurais jamais dû
Le quitter des yeux
