Bon Ton Roula - Clarence Garlow

You see me there but I ain't no fool

I'm one smart Frenchmen never been to school

You want to get somewhere in a Creole town

You stop and me show you 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's got way's like the old craw-fish

She don't know nothing

But raise sand all night

But when it come to making love

She's alright

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

If 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 got a cotton picker

She's really fine

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

At the church bazaar or the baseball game

At the French trala

It's all the same

If you want have fun you got to go

Way out in the country to the zydeco

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 Rou
