Al Stewart - French Laundry



King Louie never had it so good


He lived like royalty should


He was winin', dinin'


Taking in the French laundry"



No revolution's gonna keep me awake."


Marie said "Just let them eat cake"


I'm going winin', dinin'


Taking in the French laundry



A corner table lit by candlelight


A chardonnay to whet our appetite


I can live here all of my life


So smile when you eat


Taking in the French laundry



While the troops where at Waterloo


Bone' said "What I really wanna do


Is go winin', dinin'


Taking in the French laundry"



A croissant and a glass of milk


Louis Pasteur was a lousy cook


He went winin', dinin'


Taking in the French laundry



A corner table lit by candlelight


A chardonnay to whet our appetite


I can live here all of my life


So smile when you eat


Taking in the French laundry



With an easel and splash of paint


Monet and Manet they just couldn't wait


They went winin', dinin'


Taking in the French laundry



While Gigi cried "Viva la France!"


DeGaulle smiled and asked her to dance


They went winin', dinin'


Taking in the French laundry



They went winin', dinin', taking in the French laundry


Winin', dinin', taking in the French laundry


Winin', dinin', taking in the French


Winin', dinin', taking in the French laundry
