I Don't Speak French
I met a girl named Gabrielle She was dressed in black and young as hell She took me to her domicile Invited me to stay a whileShe fed me breakfast and fed me wine And later on we took the time To explore each other's areas Run into a language barrierIt can be so frustrating The way we insist on communicating But I do not parlez-vous youI don't speak French But somehow I've gotten on a good time Oh! I don't speak French But there's only one thing on her mind. Oh I.Voulez-vous mon ami Bonsoir, baby Is all I know how to say right now But you can bet I'm learning how'Cos where I'm from the thing to do Is to paint yourself red, white and blue Letras de cancionesHow about you? Can you say you do the same thing too?I'm just your average yankee Trapped in a world of French hanky-panky But I do not parlez-vous youI don't speak French But I've got a shit load of Euros Oh I! I don't speak French But that doesn't matter to French girls. Oh I. Come on!There's a plane on the ground at JFK For me it waits To carry me away to you The things we did The things we didn't do Oh Gabrielle I learnt so much from youYou taught me how to surrender Instinctual behaviour from a time you don't remember But thank God the allies crushed the Nazis on the 6th of NovemberI don't speak French But somehow I've gotten on a good time Oh I! I don't speak French But there's only one thing on her mind. Oh yeah! I don't speak French But that doesn't matter to French girls Oh I! I don't speak French 'Cos it's useless most places in the world. From Letras Mania
