Un petit garçon est venu me voir tout à l'heure
Avec des crayons et du papier
Il m'a dit je veux dessiner un homme en couleur
Dis-moi comment le colorier
Je voudrais qu'il soit pareil que moi quand je serai grand
Libre, très fort et heureux
Faut-il le peindre en bleu, en noir ou en blanc
Pour qu'il soit comme je le veux
Si tu le peins en bleu, fils
Il ne te ressemblera guère
Si tu le peins en rouge, fils
On viendra lui voler sa terre
Si tu le peins en jaune mon fils
Il aura faim toute sa pauvre vie
Si tu le peins en noir fils
Plus de liberté pour lui
Alors le petit garçon est rentré chez lui
Avec son beau cahier sous le bras
Il a essayé de dessiner toute la nuit
Mais il n'y arriva pas
Si tu le peins en bleu, fils
Il ne te ressemblera guère
Si tu le peins en rouge, fils
On viendra lui voler sa terre
Si tu le peins en jaune mon fils
Il aura faim toute sa pauvre vie
Si tu le peins en noir, fils
Plus de liberté pour lui
Si l'on veut trouver une morale à ma chanson
C'est assez facile en somme
Il suffit de dire à tous les petits garçons
Que la couleur ne fait pas l'homme
