Chantez-Les Bas (Sing 'Em Low)

Patois Mardi Gras and romantic blues

Once I hard a lover when work was over strum a Creole croone

To his wherein lovey dovey underneath a Dixie Moon I heard her say

Chantez-les bas that means in Creole

Chantez-les bas She liked her blues played sweetly and slow yeah

Chantez-les bas I can't forget that serenade and if you listen to me

Just a while I'll try to sing for you what they say

Oh in the mornin' baby

Jes' fore day in the mornin'

Jes' fore day in the mornin'

Jes' fore day and New Orleans hey hey Oh in the mornin' baby

Jes' fore day in the mornin'

Jes' fore day in the mornin'

Jes' fore day I'll come to get you and take you away far far away
