Lyrics
Blanche et tout en soie,
Qui trotte là-bas?
C’est Madame l’Oie,
Sans souliers ni bas.
Fi donc ! Jamais bottes
Sans un tire-point.
L’oie a bien des bottes,
Mais de souliers point.
Toute la marmaille,
Oh ! Qui leur en cuit,
N’a ni sou ni maille,
ni jeu ni biscuit.
Je vend ma paillasse,
Je couche au talus,
Comme celle puce,
ne me pique plus.
Lyrics translation
White and all silk,
Who's trotting over there?
It's Madame L'oie,
No shoes or stockings.
Fi so ! Never boots
Without a tire iron.
The goose has many boots,
But shoes point.
All the scum,
Oh ! Who cooked them,
No money or mesh,
no game, no cookie.
I sell my bench,
I lie on the embankment,
Like that chip,
don't sting me anymore.
