Cajun Caper |
Well I was a working down in Bemagrove at the palace |
Workin' off shore |
The man told me that to stay at sea |
I’d have to stop that fighting |
And everyday at noon |
Them Cajun shrimp boats would pull upside |
And them pretty dark eyed ladies |
Traded shrimp for my wine |
So I tell the men my former life I lived in Louisiana |
'Cause I like that Cajun food |
And I like Cajun music |
And I like Cajun girls |
Well I had me a runnin' partner |
His name was Aligator John |
You know he said that he used to wrestle |
But he put a lot of people on |
Now every day at sundown |
Well me and ole John would be downtown |
And all them pretty dark eyed ladies |
Well they tried to smile me down |
So I tell the men my former life I lived in Louisiana |
'Cause I like that Cajun food |
And I like Cajun music |
And I like Cajun girls |
Well maybe the same line |
And maybe the same time |
Well you know them mean ole rules |
Well they get you down |
I… elieyeeee… |
Yeah play it Dougie |
And I was down in Ensenada |
I was a workin' off shore |
And you know the man told me that to stay at sea |
I’d have to stop that drinkin' |
And everyday at noon |
A Mexican shrimp boat would pull upside |
Yes and them pretty dark eyed ladies |
Traded shrimp for my wine |
So I tell the men my former life I lived in Tijuana |
But I like Mexican food |
And I like Mexican music |
And I like Mexican girls |
I… elieyeeeee |
