I've got a ton of 'em...where to send?

Hey Dwight,

How should we send them?

Re: I've got a ton of 'em...where to send?

Just go to link #1 above, join the group, go to Files, then Lyrics - English, and create the files in there.

There's also Lyrics - French.

Re: Re: I've got a ton of 'em...where to send?

create the files, or import them, if it's one song per file.

Hey Justin

Thanks for putting that Lawtell Two Step up there. Merci, merci.

Re: Hey Justin

Pas de quoi. J'ai quèques autres chansons de les Garçons de Feuilles de Pins si tu veux...

Re: song list from lyrics site

Re: song list from lyrics site

I am looking for lyrics to La Valse de Chagrin by Shorty Leblanc as sung by Ann Savoy.

Re: song list from lyrics site

From the Savoy Family Band CD:

Valse de Chagrin (sung by Ann Savoy)

Hier au soir, j'sus parti
Good-bye, pour m'en aller
C'est pour voir ma catin à la maison
Quand j'sus arrivé là-bas
Moi j'ai vu une p'tite lumière
C'est là j'ai vu y'avait quèqu' chose
Qu'était pas bien
J' m'ai mis (z') à observer
J' m'ai mis (z') à jongler
Et là j'ai vu ma catin était partie
Partie pour chercher
Elle m'a quitté, elle m'a laissé
Elle m'a quitté, c'est la valse du chagrin.

Chère ti-monde, un aut' s'en vient
Tu veux voir pour toi-même
C'est par rapport (t') à les conseils t'as écoutés
Tu m'as laissé moi tout seul
Tu m'as quitté à la maison
Tu m'as laissé pour la balance de ma vie.

Re: song list from lyrics site
