Lyrics
I would never normally go bowling On a friday morning in new orleans But I like to come here to remember The kind of places you took me Like the time we stole a datsun And drove all night to the everglades Until we crashed it in a big electric storm And stood there listening to the bayou rain
The county sheriff had a hair - lip Louisiana's pride and joy He said politley as he cuffed me &Quot;i never busted an english boy .. But I will accept a contribution To the opelousas' charity ball But you better drive this dirty datsun Into the gulf of mexico"
Under a cajun moon I lay me open There is a spirit here that won't be broken Some words are sad to sing Some leave me tongue-tied (But the hardest thing to tell you ) But the hardest words I know Are I love you goodbye I love you goodbye
Typhoon pierre delayed my plane till morning (Jusqu'au matin) Let the bontemps rouler from your accordion (L'accordien) Under a cajun moon I lay me open (Y a un esprit partout) There is a spirit here that won't be broken (Simple words are sad to sing Some words are sad to sing (They leave me tongue-tied) Some leave you tongue-tied (But the hardest thing to tell you my friend) But the hardest words I know (Is I love you goodbye) Are I love you goodbye (Je t'aime, au revoir) I love you goodbye (Je t'aime, toujours) I love you, goodbye
