Bon Ton Roula

Bon Ton Roula - Clarence Garlow

You see me there but I ain't no fool

I'm one smart Frenchmen never been to school

Wanna get somewhere in a Creole town

You stop and let me show you

Your way around

You let the Bon Ton Roula

You let the mule-a bool-a

Now don't you be no fool-a

You let the Bon Ton Roula

I got a Creole gal

She's one fine dish

But she got ways like the old crawfish

She don't do nothing

But raise sand all night

But when it come to love

And she's much alright

We let the Bon Ton Roula

We let the mule-a bool-a

Now don't you be no fool-a

We let the Bon Ton Roula

You want to have yourself

Some real fine fun

Go down to Louisiana and you get to round

You'll find her cutting cane all down the line

I've got a cotton picker

She's really fine

We let the Bon Ton Roula

We let the mule-a bool-a

Now don't you be no fool-a

We let the Bon Ton Roula

At the church bazaar or the baseball game

At the French trala

It's all the same

If you wanna have fun now you got to go

Way out in the country to the zydeco

We let the Bon Ton Roula

And let the mule-a bool-a

Now don't you be no fool-a

You let the Bon Ton Roula
