Line 2, I hear :

………………quoi t’as fait, ouais,


Line 6, I think it's :

Plus personne pour t'aimer.

These are from the liner notes of the lp, transcribed by Barry Ancelet.

Oh, 'gardez donc, 'tit nègre,
Quoi t'as fait, ouais,
Moi, j'peux plus t'aimer,
Toi, catin

Oh, tu connais, 'tit nègre,
T'as roulé les chemins
Toi, tout seul,
Plus personne te veut

Oh, toi, 'tit nègre,
T'as quitté
Pour t'en aller
Pour t'en aller si loin

I think the real title is "le 'tit nègre à tante Doline (instead Dolcie)" and it really looks like the Segura version of Rosalie...I don't know the octa Clark's version but I know the lyrics of both segura and hébert's version...if you are interested to have it just let me know.

"Real" titles in Cajun music are very elusive and debatable subjects. This song has several names in addition to the mysterious aunt.

Thanks guys, and thanks Marc. I'd love to hear those other versions, Greg, then I might be more fired up to get the lyrics.

If you'd be willing and able to send me the mp3's of them, my address is

It's too bad about the skips on my record with this song. There's foreign matter on it right at a certain spot that I haven't been able to clean off.

I think my favorite alternative title for this song is Hula Hoop Two Step by Nathan Abshire. J.D. Miller gave it that name. I guess that was right when the hula hoop craze was kicking in.

Have you tried alcohol, Neal? I have some really toxic stuff, but I forget what it is; I just know the record guys said it works the best.

BTW, is the Hula Hoop 2-step on your site?

I heard I should use only distilled water and a soft cloth.

Yes, Hula Hoop is listed with the songs for the 50s-60s.

you are right Bryan, "real" title doesn't mean anything in cajun music, and I just remember I should have ever seen this both names for this aunt, so it was stupid from my part!

Jamey, check this post (link #1):

it talks about the other names of this tune and gives dewey segura's lyrics...it can be intersting

you can also heard this segura's version (link #2).

and the one from Adam Hébert (link #3)

enjoy

Thanks for the links, Greg! I'm enjoying them all.

I had forgotten about the Hebert song. Thanks, Greg.

Not stupid at all. The name game is a confusing sport in Cajun music.

Thanks Neal.
