Lyrics

Here comes a man in uniform, what brings you to this place? I come here as a volunteer (I'd look upon your face) You wear an army uniform (that's why they let me through) You've got some years behind you, sir (there's much that I can do) You see that prisoner over there? A volunteer like you A spy who calls himself Javert He's gonna get it too They're getting ready to attack (take this and use it well) But if you shoot us in the back, you'll never live to tell Platoon of sappers advancing toward the barricade Troops behind them, 50 men or more Fire See how they run away? By God, we've won the day They will be back again, make an attack again For your presence of mind, for the deed you have done I will thank you, M'sieur, when our battle is won Give me no thanks, M'sieur, there's something you can do If it is in my power Give me the spy, Javert, let me take care of him The law is inside out, the world is upside down Do what you have to do, this man belongs to you The enemy may be regrouping, hold yourselves in readiness Come on, my friends, back to your positions The night is falling fast
