Il y avait sur la mer farouche
Un navire de quinze matelots
Qui manquèrent de provisions de bouche
Et se perdirent sous les flots.
S'ayant tirés en loterie
Ils se mangèrent mutuellement
C'est Mathurin qui a bien vigie
Qui resta le dernier vivant.
De son quatorzième camarade
Ayant terminé le repas
Se sentit l'estomac malade
Car les autres ne passaient pas.
Quand Mathurin revint en France
Au nom de ses quatorze amis
Il s'en vint leur montrer sa panse
Disant v'la l'tombeau d'vos maris.
À ce moment, les quatorze commères
D'vant Mathurin tombent à genoux
En versant des larmes amèresSur le tombeau de leurs époux
Il se fit tatouer sur le ventre
Au nom de ces quatorze malheureux
Une inscription portant au centre
Ces mots touchants "Priez pour eux".
Une des veuves nommée Catherine
En signe de l'époux regretté
Dessina à l'encre de Chine
Un mausolée de l'autre côté.
Devant la vénérée bedaine
Elles apportent des pots de fleurs
Du romarin, de la verveine
Aussi des petits pois de senteur.
Depuis ce temps Mathurin vit fort sage
Mais ce qui l'embête, c'est pour montrer
La tombe où dort tout l'équipage
Sans cesse il faut se déculotter.
