No Jef, you're not alone
But stop crying
Like that in front of everyone
Because a half-old woman
Because a fake blonde
Let you down
No Jef, you're not alone
But you know you're embarrassing me
Sobbing like that
Stupidly in front of everyone
Because a three-quarters whore
Slapped you in the hands
No Jef, you're not alone
But you're a disgrace to look at
People are laughing at us
Let's get off this sidewalk, come Jef, come
Come, come

Come, I have three cents left
We're going to go drink them
At Mother Françoise's, come Jef, come, come
I have three cents left
And if it's not enough, well
I'll still have the slate
Then we'll go eat
Mussels and then fries
Fries and then mussels
And Moselle wine
And if you're still sad
We'll go see the girls
At Madame Andrée's
Apparently there are new ones
We'll sing again like before
We'll be good together
Like when we were young
Like when it was the time that
I had money

No Jef, you're not alone
But stop your grimaces
Lift your hundred kilos
Move your carcass
I know your heart is heavy but
You have to lift it, Jef
No Jef, you're not alone
But stop sobbing
Stop spreading yourself
Stop repeating that you're good to throw yourself in the water
That you're good to hang yourself
No Jef, you're not alone
But it's not a sidewalk anymore
It's becoming a cinema
Where people come to see you
Come Jef, come, come

Come, I still have my guitar
I'll light it up for you
And we'll be Spanish, Jef, come, come
Like when we were kids
Even though I didn't like it
You'll imitate the nightingale, Jef
Then we'll find a bench
We'll talk about America
Where we're going to go, you know
When we have money, Jef, come
And if you're still sad
Or just if you look like it
I'll tell you how
You'll become Rockefeller
We'll be good together
We'll sing again like before
Like when we were handsome, Jef
Like when it was the time
Before we were drunks

Come on Jef, come
Yes, yes Jef, yes, come
