Ron, you don't mean a Cajun French version, do you ? Because there was a version in French called "Ya Ya Twist" in the 60's (link #1). Not really a translation though, but roughly the same theme and an attempt at keeping the "ya ya, la la" sounds.

Hey Christian,
Thanks for the reply. I thought there was a Creole version with someone singing it with a gravel type voice.

Thank you Joanie Blon
I sure had forgotten the rest of the words to that song. Do you by any chance know how I can get, at least the small part I wrote, translated to Cajun French, or Creole French?

Ron

Ron, we have come to two possible variants :

Assis icitte la la,
‘près espérer ma Ya Ya,
Ça peut sonner drôle
Mais moi j’crois pas qu’alle va r’venir
Bébé, dépêche-toi,
Donne-moi pas du tracas
Oh, tu connaissais que je t’aime,
Oh, comme moi je t’aime fort.


Or :

Planté icitte, la la,
J’espère pour ma Ya Ya, uh,
J’connais ça c’est drôle
Mais moi j’crois pas qu’elle va r’venir
Oh, bébé, dépêche-toi,
Tu me donnes du tracas,
Oh, tu connaissais que je t’aime
Oh, comme moi je t’aime fort, oh.

If you want to sing it the number of syllables is ok (drop all the mute "e"'s of course). If you have more questions you can join in our discussion here : link #1.

Merci Christian. Merci beacoup.
