I’ve gone through life merrily, I’ve always found my way
I have known what life means, I’ve never gone astray
But now I need someone, someone to settle down
Live a life that’s normal away from this old town
I’m just a simple country girl from France
In my world, city lives don’t stand a chance
You’ll hear the birds’ sweet song, that’s where I pass along
Oh… that is me – a country girl from France
I’m just a simple country girl from France
Give me some bread and wine and watch me dance
Some lover, hear my plea, please show some sympathy
Remember me – the country girl from France
Life has its ups and downs, just livin’ in Paris
I said my life is full, it won’t affect me
But now I realise just how wrong you can be
Can’t you see I’m lonely? Won’t someone please love me?
I’m just a simple country girl from France
In my world, city lives don’t stand a chance
You’ll hear the birds’ sweet song, that’s where I pass along
Oh… that is me – a country girl from France
I’m just a simple country girl from France
Give me some bread and wine and watch me dance
Some lover, hear my plea, please show some sympathy
Remember me – the country girl from France
