LYRICS GAME

I sing, I sing night and morning

I sing along my way

I sing, I go from farm to castle

I sing for bread, I sing for water

I sleep at night on the forest grass

The flies don't bite me

I'm happy, I've got everything and I've got nothing

And I sing along my way

The elves, divinities of the night

The elves sleep in my bed

The moon slips in on tiptoe

Into the woods, to dance, to dance with us

I ring at the countess's today

Nobody, she's gone

She only left a dish of rice for me

A Chinese lackey tells me

I sing, but the hunger chasing me

Torments my appetite

I suddenly fall in the hollow of a path

I faint as I fall, half-dying

Gendarmes, passing along the road

Yeah, gendarmes, I hold out my hands

Mercy, I'm hungry, I'd like to eat

I'm so light, so light

"To the station," other mustaches told me

To the station

My friend

Are you the singer, the vagabond?

We're gonna lock you up

Yes, you're done

String, you saved me from life

String, be therefore blessed

'Cause thanks to you I gave up the ghost

I hanged myself last night

And since then I sing, I sing night and morning

I sing along my way

I haunt the farms and the castles

A ghost that sings, people think it's funny

And I sleep at night on the forest grass

The flies don't bite me

I'm happy, all good, I'm not hungry anymore

And I sing along my way
