Re: Lyrics help: Joe Pitre

Hi John, I can't see the link. Here are the French lyrics from the CD :

Joe Pitre est mauvais, Joe Pitre est jaloux,
Joe Pitre est mauvais, Joe Pitre est jaloux,
Va pas là-bas, viens pas ici,
Fait attention, Joe Pitre est mauvais.

Joe Pitre a deux femmes, Joe Pitre est mauvais,
Joe Pitre a deux femmes, Joe Pitre est mauvais,
Va pas là-bas, viens pas ici,
Fait attention, Joe Pitre est mauvais.

Joe Pitre a deux femmes, c'est Thérèse et Lola (1),
Joe Pitre a deux femmes, c'est Thérèse et Lola,
Va pas là-bas, viens pas ici,
Fait attention, Joe Pitre est mauvais.

(1) Maybe Laura.....

Question : Why Joe Pitre is bad ? Easy, if Joe Pitre have two women, he also has two mothers-in-law !!

Marc.

Re: Lyrics help: Joe Pitre

Thanks Marc! And to think, I used to envy Joe Pitre! I had
never thought about the in-law problem!

BTW, my wife and I have a cajun band in Seattle.
Check my Link #1 for our new website.

Thanks again, I really want to work up this tune.

I was enjoying playing the
Boozoo version at Balfa Camp with Preston Frank this month. Since our band has
a bass and drums, I thought the 'Tit Sale version would be a more rockin' if less authentic version of the original
