A long the roads of Gascony Is heard the sound of wooden shoes Up the hills and down again; Clatter, clatter, Clack, clack. The young, and the old with bended back. Peasant women.and peasant men, With lives to live and little to choose A long the roads of Gascony. The sunny fields of Gascony The peasants plow in wooden shoes, Red sash, and black beret; Plack, plack, Flock, plock, Wooden shoes and blue smock; Hear them cry, Ha! Mascaret! At the oxen that they use A mong the hills of Gascony. A long the roads of Gascony The blackbirds sing of fair to-morrows; On happy vineyards the sunlight gleams; Clack, clack, Clop, clop. The wooden shoes, they never stop! Rhythmic with the peasants dreams, Rhyming with his joys and sorrows, Down the roads of Gascony.
