Lyrics
Y avait des gars qui marchaient
Y avait des gars qui chantaient
On n’savait pas o? ils allaient
On n’savait pas ce qu’ils chantaient
Mais la cadence de leur pas
M? l?e au rythme des voix
Ca vous flanquait? tour de bras
Un fameux coup dans l’estomac
On n’osait pas s’en m? ler
On les r’gardait d? filer
Bon sang d’bonsoir que c'?tait beau
Tous ces hommes sans un drapeau
Salut mon gars, salut, viens
Dis-nous un peu d’o? tu viens
Je viens de l? o? j’ai souffert
Et je m’en vais juste? l’envers
Alors mon gars, dis, allons-y
On a souffert nous aussi
Et si tu veux, on ira voir
Ce que la vie cache dans ses tiroirs
Et tous les gars qui marchaient
Avec tous ceux qui suivaient
Chanson derri? re, chanson devant
Ca bourdonnait comme un torrent
Ils ont crev? l’horizon
Pour y planter leur chanson
Ont abattu tous les vieux murs
Et dit «bon Dieu, que l’air est pur»
Profitons-en, tous les copains
On va b? tir? sa place
Vous d’bout les hommes auront le droit
De vivre en paix si? a leur va Et tous les hommes en cohue
Et en venant ils ont vu Le ciel du feu qui s'?clairait
Pendant que tous ces gars chantaient
Lyrics translation
There were guys walking
There were guys singing
We didn't know o? they were going
We didn't know what they were singing
But the pace of their step
M? l?e to the rhythm of the voices
Did it get to you? arm Tower
A famous blow in the stomach
We didn't dare? read
Were we keeping them? spin
Damn good evening.tait beau
All these men without a flag
Hey, buddy, Hey, come on.
Tell us a little o? you come
I'm from l? or? I suffered
And I'm just leaving? upside down
So boy, say, let's go
We've suffered too
And if you want, we'll go see
What life hides in its drawers
And all the guys who walked
With all those who followed
Song behind? re, song in front
It buzzed like a torrent
They got crev? the horizon
To plant their song
Have knocked down all the old walls
And says, " Good God, that the air is pure»
Let's enjoy it, all friends
Shall we go b? shooting? its like
You end the men will have the right
To live in peace though? to their va and all the men in a row
And when they came they saw the sky of fire that s'?clairait
While all these guys were singing
