Un gamin d'Paris
C'est tout un poème
Dans aucun pays
Il n'y a le même
Car c'est un Titi
Petit gars dégourdi
Que l'on aime
Un gamin d'Paris
C'est le doux mélange
D'un ciel affranchi
Du diable et d'un ange
Et son œil hardi
S'attendrit devant une oran-an-ge
Pas plus haut que trois pommes
Il lance un défi
A l'aimable bonhomme
Qui l'appelait "mon petit"
Un gamin d'Paris
C'est une cocarde,
Bouton qui fleurit
Dans un pot d'moutarde
Il est tout l'esprit
L'esprit de Paris qui musarde
Pantalons trop longs pour lui
Toujours les mains dans les poches
On le voit qui déguerpit
Aussitôt qu'il voit un képi.
Un gamin d'Paris
C'est tout un poème
Dans aucun pays
Il n'y a le même
Car c'est un titi
Petit gars dégourdi
Que l'on aime
Il est héritier
Lors de sa naissance
De tout un passé
Lourd de conséquences
Et ça, il le sait
Bien qu'il ignore l'Histoire de France
Sachant que sur les places
Pour un idéal
Des p'tits gars pleins d'audace
A leur façon fir'nt un bal
Un gamin d'Paris
Rempli d'insouciance
Gouailleur et ravi
De la vie qui chante
S'il faut, peut aussi
Comme Gavroch' entrer dans la danse
Un gamin d'Paris
M'a dit à l'oreille
Si je pars d'ici
Sachez que la veille
J'aurai réussi
A mettre Paris en bouteille.
Yves Montand, stage name of Ivo Livi (Marseille, October 13, 1921 – Paris, November 9, 1991), was an Italian-born French singer and actor. Considered one of the greatest interpreters of French chanson in the 20th century, Montand combined vocal power with a deep interpretive sensibility. His career, which began in the 1940s in France, saw him collaborate with some of the most important names in French music and cinema, including Charles Aznavour, Edith Piaf and Jean-Luc Godard. Among his most famous songs are "Les Feuilles Mortes", "La Vie en Rose" (cover of Édith Piaf) and "Le Chant des Partisans". Montand also starred in numerous films, earning international recognition for his performance in "Red Sky" (1964), directed by Jean-Luc Godard. His figure remains a point of reference for French and Italian culture.
