  Jean : One, two, three.

  Jean , Le père Jules (old Jules) , Le gosse (cabin boy) : [singing]  We're on the barges to work - not to play, Not to wander but to ply the canals all day, Seated at the helm we're kings of the realm, A pretty girl's smile may beguile us a while, There may be hard times too, But we'll see them through, With a cheerful heart, That's what bargemen do!
