Theme for Montreal
There's a place that I call home in Montreal Never dreamed till I left home I'd miss her call But when it's winter time and green is all I see Then I'd give the world to be at Place Ville Marie There's a bar on St. Denis, that's where I want to be Sipping cocktails, feeling oh so fancy free Keep your Manhatten, keep your Carnegie Hall Just give me a night in good old Montreal Sunday shopping underground from store to store Bennett playing place des arts, who could ask for more Root for the ALLOUETTES, hear the MSO There's a thousand places where we could go I love you, je t'aime beaucoup, it works either way Montreal's an ideal place for lovers at play Ride down the mountain side, why not do it all Just give me a night in good old Montreal Just for Laughs, lets hear some jazz or watch the skies explode Montreal in summertime's a treat for young and old She's quite an island, summer, winter, spring or fall Train or boat or jet there, you are sure to have a ball I love you, je t'aime beaucoup, it works either way Montreal's my kind of town, I'm here to stay Keep your Manhatten, keep your Carnegie Hall Just give me a night in good old Montreal Why not give me a night in good old Montreal Words & Music John Labelle English & French versions below for your listening pleasure! |
Montréal is the largest city in Québec, Canada and is set on an island in the Saint Lawrence River and named after Mt. Royal, the triple-peaked hill at its heart. Its 19 boroughs, many of which were once independent cities, include neighbourhoods from cobblestoned, French colonial Vieux-Montréal – with imposing Notre-Dame Basilica at its center – to industrial Sud-Ouest and artist-friendly Plateau.
