Act 1 - Opening Chorus.

Seq - Dr. J.Pitt-Payne. Kar - Bunty Pritchard Jones. June 2001.

[Girls] Dainty wisp of Thistledown,
On a summer evening you'll be near
Some Cavalier.

Dainty wisp of thistledown,
vaguer than the mist.

Boon to maids,
when they're young and fair,
and want to be kissed.

Such fair charm,
is made to be crushed in a lover's arm.

[Girls and Men] Here do we introduce
a faithful servant of the King!

Here is the great Monsieur Ribaud,
who made all Paris ring!

Here in Louisiana he'll be happy,
We know!

Here there's not a man alive
who'll not try to be Ribaud!
