Lyrics
Drinking wine instead of porter Life is grand in the Latin Quarter Oh-la-la and c’est la vie An Irishman in gay Paree To the shores of France I made me way Though I couldn’t parlez-vous francais But toute suite I did come to see That Paris was the place to be Drinking wine instead of porter Life is grand in the Latin Quarter Oh-la-la and c’est la vie An Irishman in gay Paree Les madamemoiselles I do adore They dance-moi all around the floor And when I sing them Irish songs They laugh and say chanter très-bon Drinking wine instead of portеr Life is grand in the Latin Quarter Oh-la-la and c’еst la vie An Irishman in gay Paree It’s jigs and reels for an Irishman But the french they love the ould can-can For they lift their skirts up high to dance Mais-oui c’est fantastique in france Drinking wine instead of porter Life is grand in the Latin Quarter Oh-la-la and c’est la vie An Irishman in gay Paree Sur rue St. Germain there’s a small cafe And you’ll find me there any time of day I’ll be sipping wine with a wandering eye C’est-si-bon to watch les filles go by Drinking wine instead of porter Life is grand in the Latin Quarter Oh-la-la and c’est la vie An Irishman in gay Paree Now when I return to Belfast town Me friends will greet me with a frown With me new moustache and me wee beret They’ll think that Georges has turned francais Drinking wine instead of porter Life is grand in the Latin Quarter Oh-la-la and c’est la vie An Irishman in gay Paree Drinking wine instead of porter Life is grand in the Latin Quarter Oh-la-la and c’est la vie An Irishman in gay Paree
