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
