Welcome, my friends, to Paris!
Here, have a flower, on me.
Forget where you're from,
You're in France!
Children, come!
I'll show you that French
"joie de vivre!"

Paris holds the key you your heart
And all of Paris plays a part.

You'll stroll two by two
Down what we call "la rue"

And soon all Paris will be singing to you!
Ooh la la! Ooh la la! Ooh la la!

You can can can too!
