Depuis que j'ai quitté l' pays
C'est dur de travailler ici
Dans la potasse d' la vieille Alsace
Entre Metz et Niederbraun
Je me sentais loin d' ma Pologne
Jusqu'à ce dimanche matin
Où je t'ai serré la main
Odile, Odile,
Qu'il est doux quand on s'exile
Le sourire d'une Alsacienne
En costume traditionnel
Je t'ai parlé polonais
Seuls tes yeux me répondaient
Pour pas causer, on a dansé
Et la choucroute a suivi l' bal
Ce kouglof, quel régal
Toi et moi, moitié moitié
C'est si bon de partager
Odile, Odile,
Tu seras mon nouvel asile
Et quand poussera le houblon
Tous deux, nous nous marierons
Mais le lendemain, j'ai compris
En t' voyant changer d'habits
Que tu t'en allais, tu me quittais
T'étais danseuse du folklore
De l'Alsace au Périgord
Et tu changeais de vêtements
Comme les polkas changent d'amant
Odile, Odile,
Tu t'en vas vers d'autres villes
Comme les cigognes qui passent
Reviendras-tu en Alsace ?
Depuis qu' t'as quitté l' pays
C'est dur de travailler ici
Dans la potasse d' la vieille Alsace
