Vive la France lyrics
The heat it burns my face
But I can’t turn away
I was born in this place
And here I’m gonna stay
Marianne don’t you fret no more
Soon they’ll be no more heat
The rains will soon start to pour
As we shelter on Charles De Gaulle Street
On Charles De Gaulle Street
Charles De Gaulle Street
The walls have fallen
And the prisoners are free
The past is calling
From when the people were revolutionary
Napoleon rides again
Peace and calm will soon return
Like way back when
It’s what we all yearn
Marianne don’t you fret no more
Soon they’ll be no more heat
The rains will soon start to pour
As we shelter on Charles De Gaulle Street
On Charles De Gaulle Street
Charles De Gaulle Street
The cross by the River Seine
Stands so straight and true
We all pray for the rain
That will make everything new
Don’t lose heart
‘Cause you know, soon the rooster will fly
Just hold your faith and look on up
There’s a rainbow in the sky
And the tricolour blows in the breeze
Everyone has dried their eyes
Peace has returned for all to see
Soon love and unity will arise
Marianne don’t you fret no more
Soon they’ll be no more heat
The rains will soon start to pour
As we shelter on Charles De Gaulle Street
Charles De Gaulle Street
On Charles De Gaulle Street
The tricolour blows in the breeze
Everyone has dried their eyes
Peace has returned for all to see
Peace has returned for all to see
C’est la vie
C’est la vie
Liberté, égalité, fraternité
Liberté, égalité, fraternité
Vive la France
Vive la France
Vive la France
Vive la France
