What? Yeah

We did that one with Allen Toussaint in New Orleans (

Yeah

)

Yeah, girl, you remember him, what a wonderful man (

Yeah

)

Yes, and, um, when we did this song, we didn't know what it meant (

Yeah

)

It meant, "Will you sleep with me tonight?" (

Yeah

)

So, we didn't know what it meant

We just knew that, "Voulez-vous coucher avec moi ce soir?" sounded like a hit

So we sang it, and it was that

And then the nuns called on us and said, "Why are these ladies singing about hookers?" (

Yeah

)

Well, we didn't really know (

Yeah

)

It just sounded good (

Yeah, I know

)

Okay, one of those things (

Well, I took a little bit of French so I kind of

)

Right, just a little bit, I know you (

Just a little bit, so

), right?

Well, I was a young girl, I had no clue (

I know

), but we found out

We were just singing, when we—

Just singing, a lot of times, we were just singing because it felt so good (

It felt good

)

Yeah (

Yeah

), and that at the time felt really good

That, "Voulez-vous coucher avec moi ce soir?" part (

Yeah

)

Yes, darling, one of those things (

Really good

)
