Lyrics
Ce Soir C'est Bon (Bill Wharton)
Down in Louisiana there’s a girl that I once knew
Her daddy played piana and her mamma sang the blues
She would wail on the violin and dance beneath the moon
And then with a voice of an angel she’d sing a cajun tune
Ce soir c'est bon laissez les bon temps rouler
Ce soir c'est bon gonna be ok
Ce soir c'est bon what a beautiful day
Ce soir c'est bon laissez les bon temps rouler
Yeah we had a time down there where life’s a fais dodo
Hanging on the bayou in her cajun bungalow
Every night was a party every night was a show
Every night she would sing that song and let the good times roll
Ce soir c'est bon laissez les bon temps rouler
Sometimes late at night when the new moon shows a grin
Sometimes she will wake me from within the dream she’s in
From far away she’ll shake me and ask me how you been
And then I hear her singing that cajun tune again
Ce soir c'est bon laissez les bon temps rouler
