La bande à bonnot


À la Société Générale
Une auto démarra et dans la terreur
La bande à Bonnot mit les voiles
Emportant la sacoche du garçon payeur
Dans la De Dion-Bouton qui cachait les voleurs
Octave comptait les gros billets et les valeurs
Avec Raymond-la-Science les bandits en auto
C'était la bande à Bonnot

Les banques criaient "Misérables!"
Quand s'éloignait le bruit du puissant moteur
Comment rattrapper les coupables
Qui fuyaient à toute allure à trente-cinq à l'heure?
Sur les routes de France, hirondelles et gendarmes
Etaient à leurs trousses, étaient nuit et jour en alarme
En casquette à visière, les bandits en auto
C'était la bande à Bonnot

Mais Bonnot rêvait des palaces
Et du ciel d'azur de Monte-Carlo
En fait il voulait vite se ranger des voitures

Mais un beau matin la police
Encercla la maison de Jules Bonnot
À Choisy, avec ses complices
Qui prenaient dans sa chambre un peu de repos
Tout Paris arriva à pied, en tram et en train
Avec des fusils, des pistolets et des gourdins
Hurlant des balcons, les bandits en auto
C'était la bande à Bonnot

Et menottes aux mains
Tragique destin
Alors pour la dernière course
On mit dans le fourgon la bande à Bonnot

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
 
The lyrics LA BANDE À BONNOT of JOE DASSIN is also present in the album Le chemin de papa (1969)

Biografia

Joe Dassin (Joseph Ira Dassin, 1938-1980) was an American-born French singer and songwriter. Considered one of the greatest French music artists of the 1960s and 1970s, Dassin captivated audiences with his warm voice and romantic, catchy songs. A polyglot, he could express himself and sing in English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, and Greek. Born in New York to French parents, he moved to France at the age of 18 to pursue music. His breakthrough came with the song "Les Champs-Élysées" (1970), which became a national anthem of France. Among his most famous songs are also "Salut les copains", "Et si tu n'existais pas", and "Laissez-moi danser". Dassin collaborated with numerous French artists, including Claude François and Gilbert Bécaud. His music is still widely appreciated in France and around the world.
