Good Bye Broadway, Hello France [French translation]

Good-bye New York town, good-bye Miss Liberty,

Your light of freedom will guide us across the sea,

Ev'ry soldier's sweetheart bidding good-bye,

Ev'ry soldier's mother drying her eye.

Cheer up we'll soon be there, Singing this Yankee air:

Chorus:

Good-bye Broadway, Hello France,

We're ten million strong,

Good-bye sweethearts wives and mothers,

It won't take us long.

Don't you worry while we're there,

It's for you we're fighting too,

So Good-bye Broadway, Hello France,

We're going to square our debt to you.

Vive Pershing is the cry across the sea.

We're united in this fight for liberty.

France sent us a soldier, brave Lafayette

Whose deeds and fame we cannot forget.

Now that we have the chance

We'll pay our debt to France.

Chorus:

Good-bye Broadway, Hello France,

We're ten million strong,

Good-bye sweethearts wives and mothers,

It won't take us long.

Don't you worry while we're there,

It's for you we're fighting too,

So Good-bye Broadway, Hello France,

We're going to square our debt to you.
