Original text with translation
Dario Moreno
On ne sait où il habite
On l’appelle «La Marmite»
Ce n’est pas un apprenti mitron
C’est un joyeux vagabond
En attendant qu’on lui serve
Dans sa boîte de conserve
Un peu plus que son pain quotidien
«La Marmite» va et vient
Tout tranquille
Par la ville
Il s’en va cueillir les restes d’un repas
Et bien vite
«La Marmite»
Près du feu, qui lui réchauffe un plat de roi
Quand midi sonne
Oublie les hommes
Oublie la vie dans une samba frénétique
Et revoilà «La Marmite»
Gonflé à la dynamite
Le voilà qui revient en frappant
Sur sa boîte de fer blanc
Et l’après-midi entière
Agrippé à la portière
Des tramways qu’il attrape en chemin
«La Marmite» va et vient
On ne sait où il habite
On l’appelle «La Marmite»
Ce n’est pas un apprenti mitron
C’est un joyeux vagabond
C’est un joyeux vagabond
C’est un joyeux vagabond
We don't know where he lives
It's called "The Marmite"
He's not an apprentice baker
He's a merry wanderer
Waiting to be served
In his tin can
A little more than his daily bread
"La Marmite" comes and goes
all quiet
By the city
He goes to pick the leftovers of a meal
And soon
"The pot"
By the fire, which warms him a king's dish
When noon strikes
Forget the men
Forget life in a frantic samba
Here we go again "La Marmite"
Inflated with dynamite
Here he comes knocking
On his tin box
And the whole afternoon
Clinging to the door
Trams he catches on the way
"La Marmite" comes and goes
We don't know where he lives
It's called "The Marmite"
He's not an apprentice baker
He's a merry wanderer
He's a merry wanderer
He's a merry wanderer
