Gay Parisienne
(Lyrics Jack Scholl, Sigmund Romberg)
Composed for the 1943 movie of The Desert Song and originally sung by Irene Manning. Sung in the 1953 movie by Kathryn Grayson.

1. Why do they call me "Gay Parisienne,"
And whisper when they say they knew me when,
I know that when it's me they're thinking of,
They say "another day another love."

2. I may pretend I'm gay, and say "Hello",
But if you've never loved, you'll never know.
It's just a game with me, how could I ever be,
A gay Parisienne without my love?

The Grayson song in the motion picture also features Tony Martin. Amazon has downloads, but the cd is not in stock.

Listen to it on youtube- I don't like it, but that's a personal opinion.
