Oh, they call you Gigolette They say that you're the Devil's pet They say beware for you destroy The heart and soul of every boy
They say that your lips are soft and warm And they say that your touch has a magic charm But that you're a butterfly Flying from guy to guy
Yes, you're known as Gigolette A love and them and leave them Gigolette They say you're laugh when lovers cry They say it's a kiss and then goodbye
They say that your heart is made of stone And they say stay away, leave you alone Ah, that you're a fly by night Many arms to hold you tight
But it's too late for me, too late now to forget I'm under the spell of Gigolette My chance to run away is past I'm in your arms at last
So come on and hold me Oh, hold me close to you Oh, kiss me, don't break my heart in two Tomorrow you're may be out of sight But tonight, tonight, tonight, love me Gigolette
