Ma Belle Cherie
Ma Belle Cherie, toujours l’amore, Petite amie, je vous adore
Meet me down by the old barn door, Ma Belle Cherie, you are the one I’m yearnin’ for

I know some girls, more than a few, not one o’ them compares to you
It’s you I love, I swear it’s true, Ma Belle Cherie, you are the one I’m yearnin’ for

Ma Belle Cherie, toujours l’amore, Petite amie, je vous adore
Meet me down by the old barn door, Ma Belle Cherie, you are the one I’m yearnin’ for

The night is young and so are we, let’s tie the knot if you’ll agree
I know a preacher in Metarie, Ma Belle Cherie, you are the one I’m yearnin’ for

I ain’t gonna ask your daddy for your hand
I know that he don’t like me and he wouldn’t understand
But you’re of age and he don’t matter anymore
Ma Belle Cherie, you are the one I’m yearnin’ for

I know a little place that’s right near Ponchetrain
It’s small and kinda noisy, but we’ll love it just the same
We’ll hang our wedding photos by the bedroom door
Ma Belle Cherie, you are the one I’m yearnin’ for

Ma Belle Cherie, toujours l’amore, Petite amie, je vous adore
Meet me down by the old barn door, Ma Belle Cherie, you are the one I’m yearnin’ for
