1. Quand j'étais chez mon père, apprenti pastouriau
Il m'a mis dans la lande, pour garder les troupiaux
{Refrain:}
Troupiaux, troupiaux, je n'en avais guère
Troupiaux, troupiaux, je n'en avais biaux
2. Mais je n'en avais guère, je n'avais que trois agneaux
Et le loup de le plaine m'a mangé le plus biau
3. Il était si vorace, n'a laissé que la piau
N'a laissé que la queue pour mettre mon chapiau
4. Mais des os de la bête, me fis faire un flûtiau
Pour jouer à la fête, à la fête du hamiau
5. Pour faire danser le village dessous le grand ormiau
Et les jeunes et les vieilles, les pieds dans les sabiots.
