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 while |
She fed me breakfast and fed me wine |
And later on we took the time |
To explore each other’s areas |
Run into a language barrier |
It can be so frustrating |
The way we insist on communicating |
But I do not parlez-vous you |
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 |
How 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 you |
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 you |
You 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 November |
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. |
