Re: lyrics help- the life i thought i wanted

Besides Raymond Francois and Ann Savoys books which are fantastic! Here are some good online references for lyrics. I always try these resources first before asking the board. 1st, you can search this forum to see if the lyrics have already been posted; 2nd, this site is wonderful http://cajunlyrics.com/ ; and 3rd is this site here http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/cajunzydeco-lyrics/files/

Re: lyrics help- the life i thought i wanted

Thanks, I do check these ones.
T'other nite I figured out how to play 'Deacon jones' then went and found the lyrics on a site called "mudcat cafe", got a bit of a shock I'll tell thee!
Have changed it a bit.
Great stuff with the band Jon.
