Re: Lyrics for Fais Do Do Bébé (aka) Fais Do Do Nègre

Maz,
The only version I have is Jambalaya Cajun Band. I might be off on some of the words but it might point you in the right direction.

Ta quitte ton pop et t’as quitte ta mom
Pour venir m’rejoin dan les range coton
Fais do-do bebe fais do-do mignon
Fais do-do mais t’as dan les bras ton neg

Les jour son long et les nuit son court
Fais do-do bebe dan les range soybean
Ta quitte ton pop et t’as quitte ta mom
Pour venir m’rejoin dan les bras ton neg

@ Josh;

I'm reposting the lyrics you posted with the grammatical French corrections without changing the lyrics.

Fais Do Do Bébé

T’as quitté ton pop et t’as quitté ta mom
Pour venir m’rejoindre dans les rangs d’cotton

Fais do-do Bébé, Fais do-do mignon
Fais do-do mais t’as dans les bras ton nèg


Les jours sont longs et les nuits sont courtes

Fais do-do Bebé dans les rangs d’soya

T’as quitté ton pop et t’as quitté ta mom

Pour venir m’rejoindre dans les bras d’ton nèg

Maz, on which album is Jesse Lege's version of Fais Do Do? I heard it on the radio the other day and liked his version the best.

Thanks Josh!
That version sounds ok with me.
@ Jon: It is a CD with the Louisiana Aces Special that's on my ipod. It is called Fais De Da Bébé, yes, it is definitely a great version.
