Lebeau:

One day when I was walking
home from life´s delight
I heard the people speaking
the Germans came at night

Paris under their command
my France in danger, all I knew
now it was the time to stand
and fight, do what I could do

for months I had been fighting
every day I could have died
what did I care for living
if my country´s been denied

one day my luck was over
I was captured, from behind
got surprised in my cover
lost my rifle, so resigned

the months have gone since then
the time didn´t stand still
and still I am now ready, when
they ever need my will

I found a new home
at the most unconsiderable place
it will be, like it has come
I live from Germans grace

but I fight back in hiding
do my duty underground
and as long as I am living
I´ll scratch the Germans wound

And someday I will return
to my beautiful France
the Germans, they willl learn
that we are in advance
