You should pay close attention
When Thanksgiving's near
'Cause it's celebration time
When the harvest is over
The Gamay is ready
The grapes have been turned into wine

So I need to head to the liquor store
And spend a bit of dough
Don't you be tardy
'Cause it's a party
For Beaujolais Nouveau

Once every year
Finding cheer
With Beaujolais Nouveau
This isn't beer
It's vin de primeur
And oh so apropos
It's light and fruity, make it your duty
To let the good times flow
A bumper crop will make me stop
For Beaujolais Nouveau

There's a whole lot of people
Who don't know the tale
Of young Beaujolais Nouveau
It's fermented fast
So it doesn't last long
And that's the way it goes

But I can't help thinking that it's a thing
That everyone should know
Every November
You should remember
There's Beaujolais Nouveau

Once every year
Finding cheer
With Beaujolais Nouveau
Just make your pick
Go and drink it quick
Within a month or so
What will it take to sway you and make you
Embrace the yearly show
To take a chance and try a glass
Of Beaujolais Nouveau

Once every year
Finding cheer
With Beaujolais Nouveau
Out on the town
Drink a bottle down
And feel the afterglow
That is the story in all its glory
So now I hope you know
If you move fast you'll have a blast
With Beaujolais Nouveau

Woo!
Beaujolais Nouveau
Beaujolais Nouveau
Just give it a go
Beaujolais Nouveau
Beaujolais Nouveau
This is not Bordeaux
Beaujolais Nouveau
