Dans une colonie
Au large de la Bretagne
On m'a emprisonné
On me fait vivre le bagne
Je ne suis qu'un enfant
Je n'ai pas connu ma mère
Ma dette envers les grands
On me la fait payer cher
On veut me corriger
On me fait danser le bal
Mon cœur a bien du mal
Une pierre va le remplacer
Dans une colonie
Au large de l'Angleterre
On me fait travailler
Mais moi, je veux voir la mer
Oh oui, je veux voir la mer
Je n'ai plus rien à perdre
Alors, j' vais pas m' laisser faire
On dit que les enfants
Ne vont jamais en enfer
