Travaillant d'ordinaire, La sorgue dans Pantin, [1]

Dans mainte et mainte affaire Faisant tres-bon choppin, [2]

Ma gente cambriole, [3]

Rendoublee de camelotte, [4]

De la dalle au flaquet; [5]

Je vivais sans disgrace, Sans regout ni morace, [6]

Sans taff et sans regret. [7]

J'ai fait par comblance [8]

Giroude larguecape, [9]

Soiffant picton sans lance, [10]

Pivois non maquille, [11]

Tirants, pa.s.se a la rousse, [12]

Attaches de gratouse, [13]

Combriot galuche. [14]

Cheminant en bon drille, Un jour a la Courtille Je m'en etais engante. [15]

En faisant nos gambades, Un grand messiere franc, [16]

Voulant faire parade, Serre un bogue d'orient. [17]

Apres la gambriade, [18]

Le filant sur l'estrade, [19]

D'esbrouf je l'estourbis, [20]

J'enflaque sa limace, [21]

Son bogue, ses frusques, ses pa.s.ses, [22]

Je m'en fus au fourallis. [23]

Par contretemps, ma largue, Voulant se piquer d'honneur, Craignant que je la nargue Moi que n' suis pas taffeur, [24]

Pour gonfler ses valades Encasque dans un rade [25]

Sert des sigues a foison [26]

On la crible a la grive, [27]

Je m' la donne et m' esquive, [28]

Elle est pommee maron. [29]

Le quart d'oeil lui jabotte [30]

Mange sur tes nonneurs, [31]

Lui tire une carotte Lui montant la couleur. [32]

L'on vient, on me ligotte, [33]

Adieu, ma cambriole, Mon beau pieu, mes dardants [34]

Je monte a la cigogne, [35]

On me gerbe a la grotte, [36]

Au tap et pour douze ans. [37]

Ma largue n' sera plus gironde, Je serais vioc aussi; [38]

Faudra pour plaire au monde, Clinquant, frusque, maquis. [39]

Tout pa.s.se dans la tigne, [40]

Et quoiqu'on en juspine. [41]

C'est un f-- flanchet, [42]
