Quand on est militaireC'est pas toujours bon tempsFaut
jouer à la guerreEt au tambour battantDe France
en AngleterreEt de Londres à ParisQuand on est
militaireFaut savoir voyager la nuitQuand on est militaireEt
qu'on n'a pas le souOn devient millionnairePare une
joie de rien du toutLes filles du dimancheQui
te disent bonjourOnt le cæur qui se brancheSur
les roulades des tamboursQuand on est militaireIl faut
savoir marcherDans l'ombre sans lumièreComme un petit PoucetSoldat
des soirs de gloireEt des pieds qui font
malMadame la VictoireEst une image d' ÉpinalSalut les
têtes blondesSoleil du point du jourTous les soldats
du mondeOnt pour copain l'amourQuand on est militaireIl
faut aussi savoirGarder pour prisonnièreLa petite fleur de
l'espoir
