Tu viens chanter,
malgré l'orage,A ce balcon qui reste sourdMais ton amie est en voyage,Pauvre swing Troubadour.Elle est partie,
chang'ment d'adresseEt j'ai repris l'appartementEt c'est à moi que tu t'adresses.Tu n'as pas d'chance,
vraiment.Swing Troubadour,Ton destin,
swing Troubadour,C'est d'chanter le bonheur,Même si ton p'tit cœur est bien lourd.Swing Troubadour,Rien pour toi n'peut effacerLes beaux jours du passé même si dans ta voix y a d'lajoie.Quand tu souris,Tout comm' toi,
je pleure en secretUn rêv' chérie,Un amour timide et discret.Moi j'n'ai plus rienMais,
comm' toi j'chant' pour mon bienLa plus belle des chansons d'amour,Swing Troubadour.Tout est fini,
plus de prom'nades,Plus de printemps,
swing Troubadour.Elle est finie,
ta sérénade :Tu vas quitter l'faubourg,Comm' j'ai quitté,
jadis moi-mêmeLe vieux quartier triste et charmantDe mes amours un peu bohêmesQui changeaient trop d'log'ment.Swing TroubadourTon destin,
swing TroubadourC'est d'chanter le bonheurMême si ton p'tit cœur est bien lourdSwing TroubadourT'en fais pas,
les beaux jours passésReviendront simplement un beau soir et sans même y penser.Pleur' pas mon vieux.Tu vivras et tu verras mieuxTous les p'tits cœursQui s'donn'nt sur la rout' du bonheur.Moi,
j'n'ai plus rienMais tant pis,
chantons plein d'entrainLa plus belle des chansons d'amour,Swing Troubadour.Swing !
Swing !
Swing !
Swing !
Oh !
Swing Troubadour.
