Poor Little Pierrette - Ruth Altman/Julie Andrews

作词：Sandy Wilson

作曲：Sandy Wilson

There is an old French legend

That's set to an old French tune

It tells how Pierrot loved Pierrette

Under a Summer moon

Ev'ry night the lovers meet

Just as the clock strikes nine

Then he gives her kisses sweet

As vintage wine

But alas one fateful night

Pierrette is forsworn

There she stands forlorn

Till the cold grey dawn

Poor little Pierrette

Where's your Pierrot

Why are you all alone

You should be

So fancy-free

Your heart should be high

But instead

You hang your head

And try not to cry

Poor little Pierrette

You mustn't show

Your dream of love has flown

Just keep on dancing

Till the dawn and then

He may come back again

Poor little Pierrette

Where's your Pierrot

Why are you all alone

Ah

You should be

So fancy-free

Your heart should be high

Ah

But instead

You hang your head

And try not to cry

Ah

Poor little Pierrette

You mustn't show

Your dream of love has flown

Ah

Just keep on dancing

Till the dawn and then

He may come back again

Poor little Pierrette

Where's your Pierrot

Why are you all alone

Ah

You should be

So fancy-free

Your heart should be high

Ah

But instead

You hang your head

And try not to cry

Ah

Poor little Pierrette

You mustn't show

Your dream of love has flown

Ah

Just keep on dancing

Till the dawn and then

He may come back again
