Un fiacre allait, trottinant
Cahin, caha,
Hu, dia, hop là !
Un fiacre allait, trottinant
Jaune, avec un cocher blanc
Derrière les stores baissés
Cahin, caha,
Hu, dia, hop là !
Derrière les stores baissés
On entendait des baisers
Puis une voix disant "Léon !"
Cahin, caha,
Hu, dia, hop là !
Puis une voix disant "Léon !
Pour ... causer, ôte ton lorgnon !"
Un vieux monsieur qui passait
Cahin, caha,
Hu, dia, hop là !
Un vieux monsieur qui passait
S'écrie "Mais on dirait qu' c'est
Ma femme avec un quidam !
Cahin, caha,
Hu, dia, hop là !
Ma femme avec un quidam !"
Y s' lance sur le macadam
Mais y glisse su' l' sol mouillé
Cahin, caha,
Hu, dia, hop là !
Mais y glisse su' l' sol mouillé
Crac ! il est écrabouillé
Du fiacre une dame sort et dit
Cahin, caha,
Hu, dia, hop là !
Du fiacre une dame sort et dit :
"Chouette, Léon ! C'est mon mari !
Y a plus besoin d' nous cacher,
Cahin, caha,
Hu, dia, hop là !
Y a plus besoin d' nous cacher
Donne donc cent sous au cocher !"
