Daughter of a wandering flower girl, spins her life story.
Fleur-de-Lis ©2006 Burton/Lurgio V1 Conceived on the Riviera An accident, I’m told Traveled a thousand places Before I was ten years old My mother never married Took what she could and left Claimed she merely borrowed It was not at all like theft Chorus Fleur-de-Lis Daughter of a flower child Running wild & free She named me Riviera Call me Fleur-de-Lis V2 I’ve seen my mother suffer Through some fault of her own She followed an uncertain heart For she was born to roam I’ve had a hundred suitors None that I would claim Thus, I’ve maintained my honor The purity of my name Chorus Fleur-de-Lis Daughter of a flower child Running wild & free She named me Riviera Call me Fleur-de-Lis V3 Now, love you’ve come into my life You’re only passing through I’ve had my fill of roaming High time at thirty-two If you should pass this way again And you stay to marry me I’ll give you all the love I hold…. I will surrender Fleur-de-Lis Chorus Fleur-de-Lis Daughter of a flower child Running wild & free She named me Riviera Call me Fleur-de-Lis Tag- She named me Riviera Call me Fleur-de-Lis
