"The Windmill Song" is the English version of the French popular song "Maître Pierre", composed in 1948 by Henri Betti with the lyrics by Jacques Plante.[1] "Maître Pierre" had already been recorded by numerous French performers when Mitchell Parish wrote the English lyrics in 1951, titled "The Windmill Song", which became popular in the United States when performed by The Andrews Sisters that year.[2][3]
