France - Keb' Mo'

Early in the morning

I was in my bed

My baby turned and kissed

On the top of my head

Made me breakfast

Sent me on my way

Kissed me on the lips

And said 'Have a nice day'

She had me right where she wanted

I was in a trance

She said «Ain't nothing wrong with Texas

But I’d really love to go to France»

I would do most anything

But I’m still making payments

On her wedding ring

I went to my employer

Mr. Hayes

I said «I've been working like a mother

How 'bout a doggone raise»

He said «Money is tight

You know there ain’t no chance»

I said «Won't you reconsider

My baby wants to go to France»

I see us walking

Along the Champs Elysees

Exchanging kisses

In a small French café

Wake up momma

Don’t you fret

I found two cheap tickets

On the internet

We leave on a Monday

For two whole weeks

All we have to do is just

Eat and sleep

I had her right where I wanted

She was in a trance

I said «Ain't nothing wrong with Texas

But you and I are going to France»
