[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
I was walking round in Paris
Near the [?] Zanzibar
Said the woman at the front door
"Do you know the place you are?
This place is from the fancy
I don't think you fit the scene
[Refrain]
You're just an American Black boy
I'm a French African Queen"
[Verse 2]
And she was tall and statuesque
She looked straight over my puzzled head
She said "Don't make me get real ugly
You heard just what I said"
"I've got music for the people
I must fulfill my precious dream"
[Refrain]
"To bring blues from America
To the French African queen"
"Ah, oui-oui!"
