  • 作曲 : P. SIMON
    A long time ago, yeah, before you was born, dude
    When I was still single and life was great
    I held this job as a traveling salesman
    That kept me moving from state to state

    Well, I'm standing on the corner of Lafayette
    State of Louisiana
    Wondering where a city boy could go
    To get a little conversation
    Drink a little red wine
    Catch a little bit of those Cajun girls
    Dancing to Zydeco

    Along come a young girl, she's pretty as a prayer book
    Sweet as an apple on Christmas day
    I said good gracious can this be my luck
    If that's my prayer book, Lord let us pray

    Well, I'm standing on the corner of Lafayette
    State of Louisiana
    Wondering where a city boy could do
    To get her in a conversation
    Maybe drink a little red wine
    Dance to the music of Clifton Chenier
    The King of the Bayou

    Well, that was your mother and that was your father
    Before you was born, dude, when life was great
    You are the burden of my generation
    I sure do love you, well let's get that straight

    Well, I'm standing on the corner of Lafayette
    Across the street from The Public
    Heading down to the Lone Star Cafe
    Maybe get a little conversation
    Drink a little red wine
    Standing in the shadow of Clifton Chenier
    Dancing the night away
