Lover du Jour Songtext
von Dolly Parton

What are you looking at, lover boy?
It won′t do you any good
'Cause I know your kind
If you wanna be mine
We gotta get this understood

Oh, I′m not gonna be your, be your lover du jour
Your special off the day, no way, I'll do farewell, bonjour
Pardon my French
But there's no chance in the hell for you, for sure
If you think that I will be, I′ll be your lover du jour
Pas moi (lover du jour)
Not me

I am well aware of your good looks and sexy ways
Serving up yourself to girls to satisfy your taste
The fresh catch of the day on your Romeo buffet
Served up hot and ready just having it your way


Well, if I′m on the menu
You'd better get this straight (lover du jour)
Me and you had better come to terms
Before you grab your plate (lover du jour)
Don′t need one place to order if you believe that I
Am just some cheesy little dish, just another chickie pie

No, I'm not gonna be your, be your love du jour
The flavor of the day, no way, I′ll do farewell, bonjour
Pardon my French
But there's no chance in the hell that I endure
The fact that I would only be your lover du jour
Oubliez-moi (lover du jour)
Forget me

Still looking, lover boy?
Have you changed your view?
I told you once, I′ll say it again
I'll take no merit from you
That's crap

If you want something appetizing
Something real and satisfying
I′ll be worth a second look, but that′s the only way

'Cause I′m not gonna be your, be your l'amour du jour
Your playmate of the day, no way, I′ll do farewell, bonjour
'Cause I won′t be caught up in your charm and your allure
No, I'm not gonna be your, be your lover du jour


No, I'm not gonna be your, be your lover du jour
The special off the day, no way, I′ll do farewell, bonjour
Pardon my French
But there′s no chance in the hell that I'll endure
The fact that I would only be your lover du jour
No, I′m not gonna be your, be your lover du jour
Your lover du jour

Mmmm, c'est domage
Too bad

No, I am not for your amusement
I am not a toy
You′re nothing but trouble
Oh, you are a bad, bad boy
(L'amour du jour)

I am a tasty starter around a full course meal
Dessert after dinner drink, and you can have your fill
Pardon my French
Tu ne causait que des ennuis, tu es un mauvais garçon
Any questions?

Aw, my French is awful, but my love is awesome
Mmm, they′re gonna laugh at me in France, sorry
