'scuse Moi, My Heart

You grew up in the city, a high society girl
And even this backwoods boy can tell you're a woman of the world
'Cause I get weak when I hear you speak the way they do in France
Well I'm sure you've heard these fancy words but I got to take a chance

Oh s'il vous plait pardonne me, I can help myself
Darling jai vous aimes beaucoup, it's you and no one else
Forgive me if I say it wrong but I just ain't that smart
If you can't see this love in me then scuse moi my heart

I showed up in New Orleans with all I own on my back
I got me a job at the country club on the rich side of the track
Then you came in with your jet set friends that you met in Paree
Well now they're gone and you're alone looking straight at me

Oh s'il vous plait pardonne me, I can help myself
Darling jai vous aimes beaucoup, it's you and no one else
Forgive me if I say it wrong but I just ain't that smart
If you can't see this love in me then scuse moi my heart

Why can't we try the language of love
The one thing you can't place yourself above
Oh dont allow your social pride to keep our dreams apart
If you can't see this love in me then scuse moi my heart

Oh s'il vous plait pardonne me, I can help myself
Darling jai vous aimes beaucoup, it's you and no one else
Forgive me if I say it wrong but I just ain't that smart
If you can't see this love in me then 'scuse' moi my heart
If you can't see this love in me then 'scuse' moi my heart
