Joe Dassin
The Champs Elysees (Les Champs Elysées) (English Version)
I was walking down a street today
And I saw a girl along the way
I asked to where she's going
And she said "Come with me"
She took me down this avenue
Where we met some friends she knew
And there we start and stopped awhile
And passed the time away
Down the Champs-Élysées
Down the Champs-Élysées
Friday night, Saturday
Any night or any day
You'll find what you're looking for
On the Champs-Élysées
Sitting in the small café
We heard the street musician play
Some waltzes on his accordeon
All night long
Hе's playing sound wheezy
But the melody was so easy
Now wе all got up and join the man
We sang this song
Down the Champs-Élysées
Down the Champs-Élysées
Friday night, Saturday
Any night or any day
You'll find what you're looking for
On the Champs-Élysées
Now the birds are cheeping
And we all feel kinda sleepy
The morning sun has risen and
The moon has gone
But still the feeling lingers
And still I hear the singers
As I walked along the avenue
And sing this song
Down the Champs-Élysées
Down the Champs-Élysées
Friday night, Saturday
Any night or any day
You'll find what you're looking for
On the Champs-Élysées
