Lyrics

My youth I shall never forget
 But there's nothing I really regret
 The years I have poured down the drain
 Have sparkled like gold in champagne
 It's cheerio my dearrio
 Prance and pirouette
 It's cheerio my dearrio
 There's a life in me yet
 Toujour gai, toujour gai
 Toujour gai, toujour gai
 Toujour gai, toujour gai, toujour gai
 I sing all my troubles away
 I don't care to cry with a king
 But with any old beggar I'll sing
 I'll dance in the sun or the shade
 To any old tune that is played
 I'll sing 'neath a pearly-eyed moon
 A rowdy and rollicking tune
 But no time for sleeping have I
 I'll sleep long enough when I die
 It's cheerio my dearrio
 Prance and pirouette
 It's cheerio my dearrio
 There's a life in me yet
 Toujour gai, toujour gai
 Toujour gai, toujour gai
 Toujour gai, toujour gai, toujour gai
 I'll sing away my troubles
 They'll vanish like bubbles
 I'll sing all my troubles away
 Toujour gai
 Toujour gai

 Toujour gai
