Well if you've been to cities but you've had enough

Have you been to Paris, France?

And if you doubt that Paris was made for love

Give Paris one more chance

The home of Piaf and Chevalier

Must have done something right to get passion this way

If you don't think Paris was made for love

Give Paris one more chance

Well now I'm calling it arrogant, calling it cruel

(Give Paris one more chance)

And also trop civaliser et mon dieu, c'est trop cool

But if you don't think Paris was made for love

Maybe your heart needs a telegram from up above

If you don't think Paris was made for love

Well give Paris one more chance

Well now there's some things I don't like and some things I do

But give Paris one more chance

I can see why Paris would be ugly for you

But give Paris one more chance

The home of Piaf and Trennet too

Must have done something right

Must have something for you

If you don't think Paris was made for love

Give Paris one more chance

Now hear the boys singing Beegees songs under the skies

Give Paris one more chance

And on the steps of Montmartre they harmonise

Give Paris one more chance

Because if you don't think Paris was made for love

Maybe your heart needs a telegram from up above

If you don't think Paris was made for love

Give Paris one more chance

Let's wrap it up..

Well if you've been to cities and you've had enough

Have you been to Paris, France?

And if you doubt that Paris was made for love

Give Paris one more chance

The home of Piaf and Charles Aznavour

Must have done something right

And will do something more

If you don't think Paris was made for love

Give Paris one more chance

Alright

Give Paris one more chance

Utterly wonderful. The highlights for me are the sax solos and the girls on backing vocals. Inimitable. Timeless. I can relate to this. Thanks.

Happy Birthday to the great Jonathan Richman, who turns 62 today. A timeless American original. Thanks for the soundtrack of my life, Jonathan. Jonathan Richman - Give Paris One More Chance

I övermorgon blir det NYC och bästa +Elisabeth Ekberg i nästan två veckor. På hemvägen spenderar jag dessutom åtta timmar i Paris! Tror det är runt 15 år sedan jag var där senast, så även det ska bli ett kärt återseende. Någon som har tips på vad som kan vara värt att försöka hinna med på den korta tiden? Och då menar jag inte det mest uppenbara som Eiffeltornet, Louvren, m.fl... (been there, done that, etc) men kanske någon mindre känd sevärdhet, lunchställe eller vad som.Bara Jonathan Richman kan väl skapa en sådan oväntad förväntan inför en mellanlandning!

According to Wikipedia Charles Trenet spelled his name with just one 'n.' Great post though, to get me to cross-reference the lyrics. Thanks, Tony, and thanks, Jonathan.

I bought the more low-key version of this off of iTunes, but I was looking for this one! I love this song.

This is a damn fine snappy tune. Along with this ditty , I also enjoy New Teller and I'm Natures Mosquito.
