Bon Ton Roulet





You see me there, well I ain't no fool
One smart Frenchman never been to school
If you want to get somewhere in a Creole town
Stop and let me show you your way around


And let the bon ton roulet, and let the moulay voulay
Now don't you be no foolay, and let the bon ton roulet


I got a creole girl, she one fine dish
But she got ways like a old crawfish
She don't do nothing but raise sin all night
But when it come to loving she much all right


She let the bon ton roulet, she let the moulay voulay
Now don't you be no foolay, and let the bon ton roulet


If you want to have yourself some real fine fun
Go down to Louisiana and get you one
You see them cutting cane all down the line
I got me a cotton picker, and she sure is fine


She let the bon ton roulet, she let the moulay voulay
Now don't you be no foolay, and let the bon ton roulet !

A foggy day in London Town


I was a stranger in the city
Out of town were the people I knew
I had that feeling of self-pity
What to do? What to do? What to do?
The outlook was decidedly blue
But as I walked through the foggy streets alone
It turned out to be the luckiest day I've known

A foggy day in London Town
Had me low and had me down
I viewed the morning with alarm
The British Museum had lost its charm
How long, I wondered, could this thing last?
But the age of miracles hadn't passed,
For, suddenly, I saw you there
And through foggy London Town
The sun was shining everywhere.
