[Intro]
D A D
[Verse 1]
D A
I was a worn out Yank with an empty tank, when I seen that sign thru the snow
D
It was either the bar, or L'eglise Saint-Ars, so I figured I had to go
G
So I walked on in, and I seen her grin , and I said " bonsoir ma belle"
D A D
I bought her a drink and started to think that, she might have a story to tell
[Chorus]
A D
Oh, you Black Haired Quebecoise, let me be your beau Francois
G A D
C'est soir, tonight, alright
A D G
Oh, what you doing way up here, way across la frontiere
D A D
C'est soir, tonight, alright
[Verse 2]
D A
She said, " je m'appelle Bediduelle , je suis de Trois Riviere
D
Et tu es d'ou mon petit chouchou?, je connais pas mon cher...
My truck broke down eight miles from town,
G
And my French, it ain't that good
D
But I like your smile and its worth all the miles
A D
I spent haulin' that wood
[Chorus]
A D
Oh, you Black Haired Quebecoise, let me be your beau Francois
G A D
C'est soir, tonight, alright
A D G
Oh, what you doing way up here, way across la frontiere
D A D
C'est soir, tonight, alright
[Verse 3]
D
Well my heart was on my sleeve, I was about ready to leave
A
When this stranger , he walked thru the door
He said " qu'est que tu fait avec ma fille"
D
And my heart was lying on the floor
Well my wounds were licked, and the beer was kicked
G D
It was time to get over this, I walked outside to bum me a ride
A D
She came up and gave me a kiss...
[Verse 4]
D
Well I walked for miles, and that cold was wild
A
But that kiss sure warmed my heart
D
It was just my luck, to get to my truck, and hear that old engine start
G
I got up the road, to drop off my load, feelin' easy and free
D A D
Mix Quebecoise with my southern drawl, oh well man c'est la vie
[Chorus]
A D
Oh, you Black Haired Quebecoise, let me be your beau Francois
G A D
C'est soir, tonight, alright
A D G
Oh, what you doing way up here, way across la frontiere
D A D
C'est soir, tonight, alright
G D A D
Yeah, c'est soir, tonight, alright
