Frank Sinatra - French Foreign Legion Lyrics
If you turn me down once more, I'll join the French Foreign Legion
Bet you, they would welcome me, with open arms
First you love me, yes; then you love me, no
I don't know where I stand
Or do I march that desert sand
If you think I won't find romance, in the French Foreign Legion
Think about that uniform with all its charm
Just one more time are you gonna be mine, or au revoir cheri
It's the French Foreign Legion for me

If you turn me down once more, I'll join the French Foreign Legion
Bet you, they would welcome me, with open arms
First you love me, yes; then you love me, no
I don't know where I stand
Do we march together down the isle
Or do I march that desert sand
If you think I won't find romance, in the French Foreign Legion
Think about that uniform with all its charm
Just one more time are you gonna be mine, or au revoir cheri
It's the French Foreign Legion for me
American joining the French foreign legion 2019
Is there a German version of this song?
Afraid that Frankie would not make it long in the French Foreign Legion. But he sings a nice song.
A dead man would be hard pressed to march, very true.
I was laughing when I heard this... I spent 4 years in the marines. After I got out I got married, then divorced... then met a girl who really stole my fucking heart... after she broke it I had been considering the FFL
Well? Has the contemplative period ended yet?
Can't wait to join the Legion.
Great upload! The mans a true iconic legend
do French women particularly adore Legionnaires?
This song gives me goosebumps everytime I listen to it. 💗
I got high and couldn't stop singing and dancing with an imaginary girl to this. This by far was the best sounding song to me at the time, a pinnacle of music prestige and creativity😂
Dysturbed1 I’m doing the exact same thing, bro! Isn’t life grand? 😂
French Foreign Legion, chantée par Frank Sinatra en 1958 avec un thème romantique.
Can you tell me what do French think about strangers in FL? In my country legionnaires are considered as half - gods.
The L.E. is comprised mostly of foreigners
The FL has been created in 1831 first to remove foreign beggars in Paris, by sending them aborad in algeria
Like with most nations it depends on how well the individual within the FL integrates with French culture and understands the language. Unfortunately the Legion today is comprised of people from places like Eastern Europe (where the alphabet is different, never mind language itself) trying to enter Western societies. The Legion ultimately offers EU citizenship which opens up a lot of doors for people outside of the EU. On the whole I'd say it's kind of a 50/50 thing. If the legionnaire tries to assimilate, they will be fine. If they hold too strongly to their original culture and FL culture (which is entirely different from everyday French culture) then they can't assimilate well. Reputation-wise I'd say they're on par with U.S. Marines, Army Rangers if they're 2eme REP (minus the 2 or 3 GCP teams in 2eme REP which is actual French Special Forces I think...). They are not, by any means, on the whole "special forces". That being said they are tough as nails and go through some of the toughest training schools the French military has to offer.
7 Years of service in the 4th Foreign Regiment, Legio Patria Nostra!

+ALKpotex57x I'm planning on joining, is there any way we can chat?

Amigos y amigas. No olvidemos esta hermosa canción. Oreja. Just Hear the voice....
SUCH A GOOD SONG!!!
How many of these supposed legionaries were actually part of the French of the French foreign legion..?
FRANK SINATRA! The greatest singer in the past 80 years to date. May God bless you Frank Sinatra!
Hey Macaze iv sent u a msg to ur youtube inbox about the FFL..
Please can u get back to me. Thanx :)
wen u plan on enlisting mate?
for im going to!
I am a former member of the French foreign legion and I am a Panamanian citizen and I am proud to hear this theme a big as Frank Sinatra.
Bs, you gotta renounce your citizenship for the legion
@Someguy583 No you do not. Now if you decide to apply for french citizenship that depends on your country if you have to renounce.
@Someguy583 you can apply after 3 years of good service or by spilled blood but most don't get it until around 5 years
I am a former member of the French Foreign Legion and Panamanian nacionaldad am proud I hear this a big issue as Frank Sinatra.
Qui disposerait des paroles ?
I will join!
can you joined?
Good luck :)

Did my five years and I didn't find romance but I wouldn't trade it for anything or anyone.

Honeur, Fidelitae! Thumbs up if you agree! ;)
@tr00Darf i never watch movies at all. i will try to join but im 17 i will go with 18 and maybe i will join to FFL.
@TheFefiiiii I'm sure it is, a kid with a gun it's not a civilian it's an enemy. You have stop watching war movies mate. Just train hard and go to join us, and maybe you can see what is war like.
@tr00Darf ok i expect another answer but ok... because i will rather kill my self or let a kid with a gun kill me.. 'cause I'm always profesional whatever i do, but i wouldn't never kill a child or civilan in war, i didn't say you are murders but i thought that foreign legion never do a war crimes. but kill a civilan is a war crime...this is only my opinion no hard feelings..
@tr00Darf LEGIO PATRIA NOSTRA !
@TheFefiiiii Yes, i used to be a brazilian marine, 6 months in Haiti working for the UN. In the Legion the mission is sacred, we just complete the mission wathever it coast. We are not murders.
@tr00Darf are you been in Haiti for UN or?? and one more question... does foreign legion kill civilians and children like american army when they goes to the mission if that is necessary to complete a mission??
@TheFefiiiii yeah, in 2004 after civil war in Haiti. I've been in Haiti too in 2010.
@tr00Darf ok thanks because a know i few ex legonares who are muslims . but i heard of some serbians ( i dont hate serbs ) that legion dont like muslims and albanians at all.. respect from croatia :) i read your comment of some video that your dad committed a suicide. if you dont lie then i'm sorry. my dad is kill him self to because post traumatic stres from croatian war
@TheFefiiiii Yes, it's like the Code of Honor say "Chaque légionnaire est ton frère d'arme quelle que soit sa nationalité, sa race, sa religion" translating ->Each legionnaire is your brother in arms whatever his nationality, his race or his religion might be.
@tr00Darf i know that. :)..... can albanians or muslims go into a foregin legion???? "Ça va kurwa??" i dont know what that mean
@TheFefiiiii You guys don't get it. In the legion, only in the training the soldier don't have internet access, only the 4 initial months.I'm a legionnaire too. Ça va kurwa??
2º Regiment etranger de genie
Legio Patria Nostra
@Saint5109 maybe he was in foreign legion
@farbuttnear You're a Legionnaire and you have internet access?
If i had the balls and the fitness i'd join the Legion. Really great finding out about them, never knew much before but seen a fair bit on them recently.
@OiSkinnHead69 sorry 4 the spelling I have dyslexia :)
@OiSkinnHead69 ah okay got it, but I hope you find a good gf or something beacuse remember its not like push over thing to do I mean we are talking about 5 years :P thats what makes me thing twice, and you know im 19 so my father wanted to talk to me about my future and he said things that really made me think about my life, like just imagine to kill a man, thats somebodys son or father or uncle or brother or husband you know what I mean?
@OiSkinnHead69 by the way on their webside its some other stuff to, and what good reason should a person have to join? I mean can you just say youre tired of life? :p
ah okay, thank u :)
@farbuttnear just wondering, what does it take to be accepted? bad example but how many pushups must i be able to do ? or how smart must I be? plz answer:)

@banealcz2 ye, Feminist for life, heh, please... dont make me laugh, once again, the FFL is a jailgang whats real name is " fucked for life ", show some respect
FUCKIN SUPER LIKE!!!!!
@JohnNettles11 probably more than 2....;o)
@djtarrel highly Doubt it.
2 people were declined by the FFL
@fathamster5000
you sound so sure - how do you know? i think you are just another couch commando.
THE VOICE
@BillaWoh wearing glasses is ok for both the U.S and the FFL. besides you could always get lasik after your in.
@fathamster5000 they don't just take anyone, only 1on 7 or 1on 10 make it trough the training and selection... only the most motivated make it...
If she turns me down, I´ll join the foreign legion :/
i'll se you soon FFL!!!
Frank truly is the best singer there ever was. Love this song.
Really appreciate your uploading this great oldie as it did make me revive those happy simple years.
Wonderful song, and wonderful recording. I sing the "karaoke" version of this on occasion, and I'm amazed at how few people have heard it before.
THANKS for posting,,,,I'm totally enjoying it!
This IS available on i-tunes. Also on at least one Sinatra CD - "The 50' s Singles Collection" which is still available to buy.
@stevenadler No, I meant the fowl taking off from the lake. I wonder why that random footage was included in the video.
@AlexanderLee1 shame on you ;) the french national anthem
What's with the intro? Great song, though, thanks for posting.
i hope this on itunes
i have a great video from a Flip camcorder of Seth McFarlane singing this song at a local Karaoke bar in LA! It's the same abr they later used as the backdrop for his Oct '09 Maxim Magizine article.
i love this song n hvnt bin able 2 get it out of my hed 4 lyk 4 days
Haha. Who knows about the FFL.
One thing is for sure.
SINATRA IS THE SHIT!

frank sinatra wa a genius
i would of love to join the ffl n the 1920s
Its so sad you're talking out your ass like that and yet you say that I sound like the fuckin idiot.
Uhm...What was the point of this comment?
What a bunch of idiotic comments. FFL = French Foreign Legion = duh.
xD I know. I'm just saying a song called "Navy Seals" or "Special Air Service" wouldn't be as awesome xD
seals and sas are special forces. ffl is a elite infantry..
This song fuckin PWNS! I have the record and I just play it fuckin over and over! ^_^ But my record player broke....SO I BOUGHT A NEW ONE! WOOT!!!
Eh. SEALs and SAS really don't make a clever song like this. xD
this year probably, mate... and just kidding, it's not cause of the woman :D
