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
