On a Paris boulevarde [00:00:01]
I picked up a postal card[00:00:02]
Someone had forgotten to mail;[00:00:05]
Seems as though some tourist had[00:00:08]
Meant for it to reach her dad [00:00:11]
For it told a typical tale [00:00:14]
Naturally I read what she wrote [00:00:18]
This is what she said and I quote;[00:00:22]
I came to Paris to buy me a gown [00:00:26]
To Paris to Paris and boy what a town [00:00:31]
The lights were sparkling the music was gay [00:00:35]
I bought me my gown and decided to stay [00:00:40]
Now poppa don't preach to me preach to me poppa don't preach to me [00:00:44]
Let my heart break while it's young [00:00:49]
Now poppa don't preach to me preach to me poppa don't preach to me [00:00:53]
Let me fling till my fling is flung [00:00:58]
I danced in Paris last night with Pierre [00:01:07]
That "x" marks my room but I'm never up there [00:01:12]
I strolled through Paris today with my niece [00:01:16]
The "Rue De La Paix" means "The Street Of The Peace" [00:01:21]
I'm here in Paris since early May [00:01:25]
My gown got all worn out but I'm still okay [00:01:30]
I'm made for Paris I'm finding it out [00:01:34]
I still have no pass but my future's in doubt [00:01:38]
Now poppa don't preach to me preach to me poppa don't preach to me [00:01:42]
Let my heart break let it roam [00:01:47]
Now poppa don't preach to me preach to me poppa don't preach to me [00:01:51]
I'll never no I'll never come home [00:01:55]
No poppa don't preach to me [00:02:00]
And don't make some nonsense speech to me [00:02:04]
Aw come on baby don't bug me [00:02:08]
I'll never never come home[00:02:11]
