Cover art for If I Was From Paris lyrics by Grace Potter and the Nocturnals

You got me down on the floor So what’d you bring me down here for? You got me down on the floor So what’d you bring me down here for?

If I a man I’d make my move If I was a blade I’d shave you smooth If I a judge I’d break the law And if I was from Paris If I was from Paris I would say Oooh la la la la lala

You got me up on your swing So when you gonna shake that thing? You got me up on your swing So when you gonna shake that thing?

If I a man I’d make my move If I was a blade I’d shave you smooth If I a judge I’d break the law And if I was from Paris If I was from Paris I would say Oooh la la la la la la

If I a man I’d make my move If I was a blade I’d shave you smooth If I a judge I’d break the law And if I was from Paris If I was from Paris I would say Oooh la la la la la la

correct lyrics from their website. =]

btw, love this song and band, but the video from 'divas salute our troops' is the best! i think the line 'if i was a man, id make my move' sums it up the best. i think she's saying that you are acting like you want me, so take your shot before you miss it.
