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
