Come, musketeers, come if you shall  
join in the siege of La Rochelle.  
Come fight for Louis and for France.  
The Huguenots won't stand a chance!

Your azure cloak, it bears a cross  
come, rid your soul of sin and dross.  
You'll join the likes of D'Artagnan  
and fight until the day is done!

Your sword may hang on your good side  
true musketeers will wear with pride  
and when the foe is at arm's length  
your fencing skills will be your strength

But it's the musket in your name  
the musket that will give you fame  
Come fight for Louis and for France.  
The Huguenots won't stand a chance!
