Leave me at the window
Blowin' smoke onto the street
Thinkin' deep in summer heat
About the things that I did see
In a month in this sweet city
Like a four-week-long pipedream
Pass me the wine
I'm feelin' whiney, so it seems
That I must cry
Oh, I cry
For tonight I leave Paris
Et ma blonde cherie behind
And so I cry
I leave you at the station
I lay my letter in your hands
It says I'll phone you come round August
When I'm back from pretty lands
I'm your dirty old American
In a ramblin' rock & roll band
And now I hit the rails
And say au revoir to France
But I must cry
Oh, I cry
For tonight I leave Paris
Et ma blonde cherie behind
And so I cry
Oh, I cry
Now I'm bound for Italy
With great tears in my blue eyes
You're my long-legged lady
And your tongue is sharp
I'm gonna miss you so dearly
When I'm travelin' so far
Please hold me till the evenin'
When my train is set to part
It breaks my heart, it breaks my heart
