I was a worn out Yank with an empty tank, when I seen that sign thru the snow

                                                                    D
It was either the bar, or L'eglise Saint-Ars, so I figured I had to go

                                                                 G
So I walked on in, and I seen her grin , and I said " bonsoir ma belle" 

                         D                          A                     D
I bought her a drink and started to think that, she might have a story to tell
[Chorus]
        A                        D              
Oh, you Black Haired Quebecoise, let me be your beau Francois

   G     A        D
Ce soir, tonight, alright

    A                           D             G
Oh, what you doing way up here, way across la frontiere

D        A        D

[Verse 2]
D                                                       A
She said, " je  m'appelle Bediduelle , je suis de Trois Riviere

                                                         D
Et tu es d'ou mon petit chou-chou?", "Je connais pas mon cher..."
My truck broke down eight miles from town,
                             G
And my French, it ain't that good

                              D
But I like your smile and its worth all the miles

  A                  D
I spent haulin' that wood
[Chorus]
        A                         D              
Oh, you Black Haired Quebecoise, let me be your beau Francois

    A                           D             G
Oh, what you doing way up here, way across la frontiere

   D      A       D
Ce soir, tonight, alright
[Verse 3]
D
Well my heart was on my sleeve, I was about ready to leave

                                     A
When this stranger , he walked thru the door
He said " qu'est que tu fait avec ma fille"
                               D
And my heart was lying on the floor
Well my wounds were licked, and the beer was kicked
                        G                         D
It was time to get over this, I walked outside to bum me a ride

  A                       D
She came up and gave me a kiss...
[Verse 4]
D
Well I walked for miles, and that cold was wild

                             A
But that kiss sure warmed my heart

                                                                  D
It was just my luck, to get to my truck, and hear that old engine start

                                                         G
I got up the road, to drop off my load, feelin' easy and free

                       D                  A                  D
Mix Quebecoise with my southern drawl, oh well man  c'est la vie
[Chorus]
        A                        D              
Oh, you Black Haired Quebecoise, let me be your beau Francois

   G     A        D
Ce soir, tonight, alright

    A                           D             G
Oh, what you doing way up here, way across la frontiere

   D     A        D
Ce soir, tonight, alright

G        D     A        D
Yeah, ce soir, tonight, alright
