I’m an Englishman,

Doing the best I can.

All my history was here,

Oh so loud and clear.

Now it’s mixed and confused,

Oh so confused.

 

I’m an Englishman,

But Paris is on my mind,

I’m an Englishman,

But Paris is my new land,

Paris is where I stand,

For evermore.

 

I’m an Englishman,

Doing the best I can.

All your bombs and guns,

Won’t make me hide make me run.

All my grief and my fears,

Will only drive me here.

 

chorus

 

We’ll be dancing in the streets, 

Drinking your blood red wine.

All I seem to dream about

Is the peace of all mankind,

With Paris on my mind,

For evermore. 

 

I’m an English man,

Doing the best I can.

I’m an English man,

In a troubled land.

I’m an English man

But Paris is on my mind.

I’m an English man 

But Paris is where I stand,

Paris is my new land,

In the heart of this man.
