J'ai pris la route de Dijon
Pour voir un peu la Marjolaine
La belle, digue digue don
Qui pleurait près de la fontaine
Mais elle avait changé de ton
Il lui fallait des ducatons
Dedans son bas de laine
Pour n'avoir plus de peine
Elle m'a dit : " Tu viens, chéri ?
Et si tu me payes un bon prix
Aux anges je t'emmène
Digue digue don daine "
La Marjolain' pleurait surtout
Quand elle n'avait pas de sous
La Marjolain' de la chanson
Avait de plus nobles façons
J'ai passé le pont d'Avignon
Pour voir un peu les belles dames
Et les beaux messieurs tous en rond
Qui dansaient, dansaient, corps et âmes
Mais ils avaient changé de ton
Ils faisaient fi des rigodons
Menuets et pavanes
Tarentelles, sardanes
Et les bell's dam's m'ont dit ceci
" Etranger, sauve-toi d'ici
Ou l'on donne l'alarme
Aux chiens et aux gendarmes "
Quelle mouch' les a donc piquées
Ces belles dam's si distinguées
Les belles dam's de la chanson
Avaient de plus nobles façons
Je me suis fait fair' prisonnier
Dans les vieilles prisons de Nantes
Pour voir la fille du geôlier
Qui, paraît-il, est avenante
Mais elle avait changé de ton
Quand j'ai demandé: " Que dit-on
Des affaires courantes
Dans la ville de Nantes ? "
La mignonne m'a répondu
" On dit que vous serez pendu
Aux matines sonnantes
Et j'en suis bien contente "
Les geôlières n'ont plus de c?ur
Aux prisons de Nante' et d'ailleurs
La geôlière de la chanson
Avait de plus nobles façons
Voulant mener à bonne fin
Ma folle course vagabonde
Vers mes pénates je revins
Pour dormir auprès de ma blonde
Mais elle avait changé de ton
Avec elle, sous l'édredon
Il y avait du monde
Dormant près de ma blonde
J'ai pris le coup d'un air blagueur
Mais, en cachette, dans mon c?ur
La peine était profonde
L'chagrin lâchait la bonde
Hélas ! du jardin de mon père
La colombe s'est fait la paire
Par bonheur, par consolation
Me sont restées les quatr' chansons
