[Verse 1]
I'm leavin' for Paris
No I don't think that I'll see you
I'm leavin' for Paris
No I don't think that I need to
So I'm leavin' for Paris
Won't you try to take care of yourself?
[Verse 2]
I pray you won't follow
Through the crooked streets behind me
I pray you won't follow
Like so many who've known me
So I'm leavin' for Paris
Don't you try to find out where I am
Just you try to take care of yourself
[Verse 3]
And when I get there
I will lose the ring you gave me
And when I get there
How happy I will then be
So I'm leavin' for Pairs
Won't you try to take care of yourself
Just you try to take care of yourself
[Outro]
'Cause I'm leavin'
Yes I'm leavin'
'Cause I'm leavin'
Yes I'm leavin' for Paris
Goodbye
