I See Hawks In L.A. - Laissez Les Bon Temps Roulet (with Carla Olson) Lyrics

We walked along the river
heard the whistle of the Dixie Belle
well we never made it to heaven
and there are secrets we can never tell

but you know that I still love you
and I’ll always stay
As we watch the muddy water
carry our troubles away

Laissez les bon temps roulet
O ma cher, o ma cher
Laissez les bon temps roulet
O ma cher, o ma cher
Tout les temps, tout facon,
Tout mon coeur, oui, allons
a la bon temps roulet
(ma ‘tit monde, ma ‘tit monde)

Like a captured meander
you locked my heart away
I was a wild roving river
whiskey and sweet tokay

now we wander more slowly
the ghosts of the parish at our side
I know one day we’ll join them
but tonight
let’s take a ride

CHORUS
