Give Paris One More Chance

Jonathan Richman

[Intro]
Alright
Oh, yeah
Ha-ha, oh

[Verse 1]
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

[Verse 2]
The home of Piaf and Chevalier
Must have done somethin' right to get passion this way
If you don't think Paris was made for love
Give Paris one more chance

[Verse 3]
Well, now, I'm callin' it arrogant, callin' it cruel
(Give Paris one more chance)
Yeah, and also, trop civilisé et mon dieu, c'est trop cool
Yeah (Give Paris one more chancе)
But, if you don't think Paris was made for love
Maybe your hеart needs a telegram from up above
If you don't think Paris was made for love
Well, give Paris one more chance

[Verse 4]
Well, now, there's some things I don't like, and some things I do
But give Paris one more chance (Give Paris one more chance)
I can see why Paree would be ugly for you
But give Paris one more chance (Give Paris one more chance)

[Verse 5]
The home of Piaf and Trenet, 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, okay

[Verse 6]
Now, hear the boys singin' Bee Gees songs under the skies
Give Paris one more chance (Give Paris one more chance)
And on the steps of Montmartre, they harmonize
Yeah (Give Paris one more chance)
'Cause 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

[Aside]
Let's wrap it up! Yeah!
(Well, well, well)

[Verse 7]
Well, if you've been to cities but you've had enough
(Give Paris, give Paris)
Have you been to Paris, France?
(Give Paris one more chance)
And if you doubt that Paris was made for love
(Give Paris, give Paris)
Give Paris one more chance (Give Paris one more chance)

[Verse 8]
The home of Piaf and Charles Aznavour
Must have done something right, and shall do something more
If you don't think Paris was made for love
Give Paris one more chance
Alright, give Paris one more chance
