THE BEGINNING CAJUN/FRENCH LINES NEED HELP!

Gene Parsons Take A City Bride written by Gib Guilbeau

Whoa yay guy, chertay bebe

Told mama et told papa

Di joh dit zhay dit par bon

I got a house on stilts, a five dollar bill

A settin' on the banks of muddy muddy bayou

Lot better than the streets of crowded cars

Pawn shops, friendly neighborhood bars

Ah but your mama and your papa won't let me come courtin'

They says I can't make a good livin' for their child

Ah but the fish bites good, the crawfish are plenty

Gonna make a lot of money when I take a city bride

I got a paint can't run, your pappy's got a big dog

Snappin' at my heels, get away you mangy hound

Light's still burning, and the ladder by the window

Take a chance gonna make another round

Ah but your mama and your papa won't let me come courtin'

They says I can't make a good livin' for their child

Ah but the fish bites good, the crawfish are plenty

Gonna make a lot of money when I take a city bride

Yea but your mama and your papa won't let me come courtin'

They says I can't make a good livin' for their child

Ah but the fish bites good, the crawfish are plenty

Gonna make a lot of money when I take a city bride
