Lake Charles Playboy Waltz

Does anyone have the lyrics for " Lake Charles Playboy Waltz"?

I have a Briggs Brown recording of the song.

A fellow who regularly attends our dances has repeatedly requested this number, and I promised him we would learn it just for him.

Sure would appreciate it if you could share these lyrics.
Many Thanks!

JB

Re: Lake Charles Playboy Waltz

Guess it is really called "Lake Charles Playboys Waltz"

Here is what I have pieced together with help from Charles Thibodeaux and from listening to the song. Grammar and spelling help appreciated:

Aujourd’hui moi j’ai la c’est

Dan la porte du ma maison

Dan la porte du ma maison après nue

Ya peux person qui vieu mame’

t’e couer si casse

Moi joi pa comme mois va faire

Moi tu sul dan les miseres

Re: Lake Charles Playboy Waltz

Hi John, here's the version by Briggs Brown

Lake Charles Playboys waltz

J’suis icite dans la porte,
Dans la porte de ma maison,
Dans la porte de ma maison, j’vais m’ennuyer.
Moi j’vois pas comment j’va faire,
Moi tout seul dans les misères,
Tu vas voir ton erreur, tu s’ras trop tard.

Moi j’voudrais chère ‘tite fille,
Tu t’en r’viens à la maison,
Tu t’en r’viens, ‘tite fille r’joindre tes enfants.
Mais tout ça que tu m’as fait,
Avec eux y a pas longtemps,
Tu vas voir ton erreur, tu s’ras trop tard.

Marc.
