Cafe Le Cabotin - Gerry Rafferty

French-sounding guy

Bon soir mes amis

Welcome to the Cafe le Cabotin

Now we come down to this island in the sun

And it ain’t been easy trying to get a day’s work done

But tonight’s the night we’re gonna have ourselves some fun

We’re gonna have some fun.

We’re gonna go downtown to the Cafe le Cabotin

Where the baron is waitin’to welcome the rock and roll band

And if get a little crazy, the baron will understand

He’ll understand.

Night and day, night and day

We will burn our boats and sail away

Ridin’high, ridin’high

We will leave our mark and say goodbye.

Now the place is jumping, the party has just arrived

Sing away the blues put the light back in your eyes

Yes on a night like this it’s good to be alive

Just to feel alive.

Night and day, night and day

We will burn our boats and sail away

Ridin’high, ridin’high

We will leave our mark and say goodbye.

But the daylight comes, it’s time to let it be Yes the sun is up and shining on the sea

It was one more night and one more memory

Just a memory.

Night and day, night and day

We will burn our boats and sail away

Ridin’high, ridin’high

We will leave our mark and say goodbye.
