Mademoiselle from Armentieres, parly voo, Maybe someone can add the tune, or more verses. Another verse ends "And all he learned was je t'adore!" I suppose it's unnecessary to say this, but resist any temptation to pronounce "mademoiselle", "Armentières", or "parlez-vous" in French. |

It was a popular marching song of the time, many verses were made up and added during the war, since it was soldiers making up these verses the more profane the better. I'll try to get back later with additional verses. |
