ZACK'S BON TON


Way back in 1965, when I first heard the "Black Snake Blues"
I was just a little boy sitting there in my room.
I snuck out the window going down those country roads,
Looking for the King of that good rocking Zydeco.

Laissez le bon temps rouler
Laissez les boulé boulé
Laissez les oignons brûlaient
Brûlés toute de la nuit.

Way down at Slim'Y-Ki-Ki and up there at the Blue Angel Club,
Ole Clifton on the sqeenze box and his brother Cleveland on the scrub,
I was hanging out the back door, too young to get in,
Told my baby, "Baby we gotta come back here again."

CHORUS

Then one day my dream come true,
Hanging around back stage, Clifton said, "Who are you?"
I said, "I'm just a young boy waiting to get old,
Get out on the road and play some rocking Zydeco."
