C'est l'histoire d'un pauvre gars
Courant la gueuse dans les balluches
Quand t'as toute la semaine dans le baba
Tu peux bien rêver d'une greluche
Chevauchant sa motocyclette
Sur les chemins du samedi soir
Il dérapa sur ses roupettes
En entendant ce cri bizoire
Les filles de La Rochelle
Ont attrapé le scorbut
Mignons finie la bagatelle
La charentaise ne répond plus, oh gué !
Le pauv' gars bloqua son engin
En se croyant halluciné
Puis il tendit ses esgourdins
Espérant bien s'être trompé
Oui mais tout soudain derrière lui
Il entendit le cri fatal
Qui semblait déchirer la nuit
De toute son horreur sidérale
Les filles de La Rochelle
Ont attrapé le scorbut
Mignons finie la bagatelle
La charentaise ne répond plus, oh gué !
Assis sur le rebord du trottoir
Avec sa tête entre ses mains
Le pauvre gars broyait du noir
En triquant dur comme un vieux chien
Et d'ailleurs à propos de chien
Celui qui passait à cette heure-là
Lui qui n'avait envie de rien
Eut droit à ce qu'il n'attendait pas ! Oh ?
Les filles de La Rochelle
Ont attrapé le scorbut
Mignons finie la bagatelle
La charentaise ne répond plus, oh gué !
Le chien repartit la queue basse
Sans avoir bien tout-tout compris
Tandis que notre pauvre gars
Lui se sentait tout rajeuni
Il remonta sur sa moto
Et s'en retourna dans la nuit
Mais depuis dans tous les hameaux
Paraît que les chiens courent derrière lui
Les filles de La Rochelle
Ont attrapé le scorbut
Mignons finie la bagatelle
La charentaise ne répond plus, oh gué !
La morale de ce cantique
Pour ceux qui ne le sauraient pas
C'est que dans la vie faut être pratique
Quand on veut ce que l'on a pas
Quant à vous les pauvres fillettes
De La Rochelle ou bien d'ailleurs
Soyez donc un peu moins couillettes
Voyez que les chiens nous font pas peur
Cheval deux trois
Les filles de La Rochelle
Ont attrapé le scorbut
Mignons finie la bagatelle
La charentaise ne répond plus, oh gué !
