Un jour, la foudre
Frappa l'jardinier
Qui levait sa hache
Sur un beau prunier.
L'éclair, en tombant, lui dit :
" J'ai bien vu qu'il t'arros' plus,
Qu'en plus il te piqu'tes fruits
Et qu'il te pisse dessus. "
{Refrain:}
Quand l'eau de la rivière monte,
Les poissons mangent les fourmis.
Quand l'eau de la rivière
Baisse jusqu'au fond,
Les fourmis mangent les poissons.
Un riche mec
Becquetait l'entrecôte
Devant un métèque
Qui comptait ses côtes.
Alors, le pauvre, fumace
De ce coup du sort inique,
Lui perfora la paillasseEt mangea son pique-nique.
{Refrain}
Un jour de gloire,
Sortant de mes gonds,
J'prendrais ma pétoire,
J'tuerai mon patron.
Non seulement je le maudis
De sauter ma femme Hélène
Mais il m'oblige, le mardi,
A m'occuper d'la sienne.
{Refrain}
Un jour, le nègre
Dit : " Maître, plaît-il ?
Pourquoi j'ai l'vinaigre
Et pourquoi t'as l'huile ?
Et réponds aussi pourquoi
A cett' question d'ma tribu,
Quand le blanc ne se lave pas,
C'est le nègre qui pue. "
{Refrain}
Quand l'eau de la rivière monte
Les poissons mangent les fourmis
Quand l'eau de la rivière
Baisse jusqu'au fond
Les fourmis mangent les poissons
Un jour le doux
Le gentil taureau
F'ra un méchant trou
Dans le toréro
Sans épée ni banderilles
Il veill'ra même à ce que
L'on remette à sa famille
Les oreilles et la queue
{Refrain}
