by Marcel Temporal (1881 - 1964)

Rabot, rabotte, varlope au long
Language: French (Français) 
Rabot, rabotte, varlope au long
Lisse le bois blond
Fer qui le dresse soit lui caresse au long
Chante au bois blond
Chante ton allégresse au long
Tralala, quand la scie chante
Son chant m'enchante
Car c'est l'écho des chants de la fôret
Qui de l'aubier pénètre jusqu'au coeur
Et sa douceur en grand secret
Dans le bois blond demeure vivant
En vos demeures
Tralala, rien ne résiste
A l'ébéniste
Lui seul est là pour bien prendre le fil
Lui seul est là pour trancher la question
Sans élection de père en fils
D'applanir tout il fait école
Toujours par lui tout colle
