French woman

The first night of my wedding I was already sad
The first night of my wedding I was already sad
To serve the King one must be happy
To serve the King one must be happy
To serve the King one must obey
To serve the King one must obey
But my sweet Frances, stay home and weep
But my sweet Frances, stay home and weep
Quiet, quiet French woman, quiet, don't you weep
Quiet, quiet French woman, quiet, don't you weep
In two or three years I'll come see you again
In two or three years I'll come see you again
Two or three years have passed the boats are here too
Two or three years have passed the boats are here too
Not one young sailor comes to the shore
Not one young sailor comes to the shore
The girl was young and spent a long time waiting
The girl was young and spent a long time waiting
She had put in her mind to marry again
She had put in her mind to marry again
And when the wedding guests were at the table enjoying themselves
And when the wedding guests were at the table enjoying themselves
There came a sailor to her house asking for lodging
There came a sailor to her house asking for lodging
And when the wedding guests were at the table enjoying themselves
And when the wedding guests were at the table enjoying themselves
There came a sailor to her house asking for lodging
There came a sailor to her house asking for lodging
Hello little girl, will you give me lodging
Hello little girl, will you give me lodging
I'm a young sailor returning from the army
I'm a young sailor returning from the army
La la li la lo lo la la li lo lé no
