En banlieue
Des trains, des remblais et des gares
Et puis on y est sans crier gare
En banlieue
On quitte Paris dans la suie
Et voilà les maisons fleuries
De banlieue
L'été, y a des lilas qui chantent
Sur des rythmes de valse lente
La banlieue
Les ptits jardins bien astiqués
Les ptits rentiers tout étriqués
Les ptit's filles en robe de piqué
Et les ptites rues mal indiquées
De banlieue, de ma banlieue
Tout près d'Paris
Dans la verdure
Oh ma chérie
Pourvu quêta dure
Ma banlieue...
J'me rappelle, on était tout mômes
Tu vois, on vivait par là
Sens?tu le rosier qui embaume
Les narcisses et les dahlias
C'est là, on poussait la barrière
On se croyait si loin de tout
La maison était pleine de lierre
Et y avait des oiseaux partout
