[Verse 1]
D                                                                        A
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
Ce soir, tonight, alright


[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
   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


[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
