Welcome, welcome,
welcome home.
From the land across the foam.
We're assembled here to say,
welcome to the
USA.
How clearly I remember the 11th of
November.
It seems like only yesterday to me.
The armistice was signed,
so I had to leave be hind all the girls I polyvooed with in
Paris.
I picked a lot of peaches over there.
Now
Wilson's making speeches over there.
As for me, I'm qualified,
qualified to say that they haven't got the girls in the
U .S .A.
that they have in
Paris,
France.
No, they haven't got the girls,
even on
Broadway,
who can dance the way they dance.
I never will forget them, forget what I saw.
Never would have met them
if there hadn't been a war.
Ah!
Because they haven't
got the girlies in the
USA
that they have in
Paris.
Mad old
Paris, bad old
Paris,
France
May we speak to you, please?
Sir?
Well, of course
we wouldn't know
what the
French girls do,
cause we've never been to
France.
Yeah, we haven't any
doubt we could do it too,
if we only had the chance.
Perhaps you didn't miss us
when you were away,
but once you start to kiss us you will never,
never say
that they haven't got the girlies in the
USA,
that they have in
Paris.
Madd ol'
Paris!
Madd ol'
Paris!
Madd ol'
Paris!
Who needs
Paris?
Who needs
Paris?
Madd ol'
Paris!
Paris!
