The French Partisan
When they poured across the border; I was cautioned to surrender,; this I could not do ; I took my gun and vanished.; I have changed my name so often,; I've lost my wife and children; but I have many friends,; and some of them are with me. ; Oh, the wind, the wind is blowing,; through the graves the wind is blowing,; freedom soon will come ; then we'll come from the shadows.; An old woman gave us shelter,; kept us hidden in the garret,; then the soldiers came ; she died without a whisper.; There were three of us this morning; I'm the only one this evening; but I wonder on ; the frontiers are my prison.; Oh, the wind, the wind is blowing,; through the graves the wind is blowing,; freedom soon will come ; then we'll come from the shadows.;
