[al: Graceland]
[length: 02:53]
[00:11.94] A long time ago, yeah
[00:14.50] Before you was born, dude
[00:16.74] When I was still single
[00:18.93] And life was great
[00:21.07] I held this job as a traveling salesman
[00:25.41] That kept me moving from state to state
[00:29.63] Well, I'm standing on the corner of Lafayette
[00:32.43] State of Louisiana
[00:34.44] Wondering where a city boy could go
[00:37.92] To get a little conversation drink a little red wine
[00:42.94] Catch a little bit of those Cajun girls dancing to Zydeco
[00:51.24]
[01:10.89] Along come a young girl
[01:14.00] She's pretty as a prayer book
[01:16.28] Sweet as an apple on Christmas day
[01:20.38] I said, good gracious can this be my luck
[01:24.45] If that's my prayer book Lord, let us pray
[01:28.74] Well I'm standing on the corner of Lafayette
[01:31.89] State of Louisiana
[01:33.84] Wondering what a city boy could do
[01:37.21] To get her in a conversation drink a little red wine
[01:41.79] Dance to the music of Clifton Chenier the King of the Bayou
[01:46.45] 'Ei-toi
[01:53.02] Well, that was your mother
[01:55.82] And that was your father
[01:57.94] Before you was born dude
[02:00.08] When life was great
[02:01.84] But you are the burden of my generation
[02:06.28] I sure do love you
[02:08.24] But let's get that straight
[02:10.84] Well, I'm standing on the corner of Lafayette
[02:13.29] Across the street from The Public
[02:15.49] Heading down to the Lone Star Café
[02:19.05] Maybe get a little conversation drink a little red wine
[02:23.64] Standing in the shadow of Clifton Chenier
[02:26.12] Dancing the night away
[02:30.53]
