Ten Francs Songtext
von Wayne Gillespie

1) The passengers were jostled as they moved into the station
Some were coming home from work and some were on vacation
They were greeted by the singers who were scattered high & low
Some were playing in "La Rue D′arts" and some were hidden in le metro.

But still he never even said thanks
No he never even said thanks to the man...
Who gave him Ten Francs.
La la la la la la
La la la la la la la la.

2) You could hear the sound go bouncing off the subway walls
You could see the crowd start pushing as they opened up the doors
But they all rushed by they never seemed to care but then
A soft voice whispers "Monsieur, tu jous très bien"


2 (French):
Et je n'ai jamais dit merci
Non je n′ai jamais dit merci à l'homme...
Qui m'a donné Dix Francs
La la la la la la
La la la la la la la la

3) Oh did his song remind you of someone that you knew
Or was it that old sadness that was creeping up on you
Or was it the look in the singers′ eye
You knew that he meant it when he sang
"Hey, That′s No Way To Say Goodbye"

But still I never even said thanks
No I never even said thanks to the man...
Who gave me Ten Francs
La la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
