Le grand Joe Macho, un loup solitaire,
Était toujours en galère
Et quand il sortait chasser la femelle
On entendait son cri sensuel
Ah ououou ou-ou-ou
Ah ououou ou-ou-ou
J'ai mon fusil à six coups
Aou Aou Aou...
La jolie Marie avait le feu aux reins
Son mari était marin
Quand elle a vu Joe entrer dans sa chambre
La mignonne a planqué son alliance
Ah ououou ou-ou-oui
Jaillit ce cri dans la nuit
Joe est revenu souvent
Et puis un soir on frappe au plus mauvais moment
"Ciel, mon mari!" a crié Marie
Qui était physionomiste
Il lui a dit: "J'te croyais fidèle"
Elle répondit: "Je le croyais aussi"
"Joe pas un geste ou tu meurs!"
Dit le trompé au trompeur
Maintenant tu vas payer
Il visait bas, il l'a touché au pied
Alors Joe a filé dans le noir
Nu comme un vers, boîtant comme un canard
Et toute la ville l'a entendu pousser
Ce cri déchirant du chien blessé
Ah ououou ou-ou-ou
"J'était prévenu après tout
Marie m'avait bien juré
Que son mari ne savait pas tirer"
