Print the Lyrics
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,

(Long Pause)

Along come a young girl,
She's pretty as a prayerbook,
Sweet as an apple, on Christmas day,
I said good gracious, can this be my luck,
If that's my prayerbook,
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
Drink a little red wine,
Dance to the music of Clifton Chenier
The King of the Bayou, Lets's Rock,

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,
But let's get that straight,

Well I'm standing on the corner of Lafayette,
Arcoss 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,
