  • I used to dance out at the Four Seasons on East Colfax in Aurora CO, Cahoots played there. Brought back great memories when I found this tonight. I've looked for it before and didn't find it. It would be great to be able to get a copy of the album, or of The Legend of the Parlangua.

  • Who ever don't like this singsong know a good song

  • Heard it for the first time tonite on Rick Jackson's Country Hall of Fame also.It was a foggy drive home also.Great song,thanks.

  • Nothing says home like this song. I love being from Louisiana and all of our rich culture.

  • Come on down too the bayou's of marksville,potchierville, promise you them city folks couldnt make it past midnight. LOUISIANA PROUD BORN AND RAISED A COON ASS!

  • Sad. Gr8KOZ, I think you're right. The writer obviously ripped off this idea.

  • hahah oh man you guys i think this song influenced the movie Creature with sid haig coming out this year

  • This song makes me homesick. Grew up in the bayous of Louisiana. Moved to west Texas about two years ago. Work for an oil company out here.

  • i love this song it is awesome

  • Can someone tell me how to get this on mi iPod ?

  • Parlangua....THE SWAMP WATER BOOGER!!!BOO!

  • I live in Louisiana, this song says, HOME

  • This song is so touching..

  • I so wish I could get my hands on the rest of this album. I grew up with it. I still need "Dark Eyes" and "The Trucker and the UFO".

  • I grew Up just about 1 Mile east of The Four seasons I was in there a lot untill it burned down. A lot of good memories and a lot of famous country stars passed through there

  • Cryptozoology novel about two boys who find something strange on the beach one night see video book trailer

  • go Denver!

  • good fucking song! I LOVE IT!

  • i sub beacause of the song (:

  • awesome song gj

  • I found the correct spelling to the Chicago French version of this monster, it is Pere' Malfait (Father Evildoer is the literal translation)

  • The French community up in the Chicago Area call this the "Pear-ma-fay" (don't know the true spelling) Supposedly they live in sewers in Chicago.

  • I love this song been trying to find it for a while

  • Loved it from the first time I heard it.

    Anyone know how can I get it on my ipod?

  • The bar's name that burned down was the Four Seasons. We used to watch the Cahoots there at least once a week and thought they were great! We helped them by making a donation when they were trying to cut their first album and have a copy of it which they graciously gave to us when it was cut. If either of them are still singing, it would be fantastic to know where. We would go across the country just to hear them again!

  • MISS LINDA! Don't let the Parlangua get you up there in those spooky old mountains of Glenwood I hear he escaped from Louisiana! Watch your back! Lol I love you :) Hope you're doing well (:

  • Awesome! I remember this song from when I was a kid... I heard it on country legends the other night and had to see if I could find it. Like the other poster said, they played it about midnight as I was driving over the atchafalaya basin in a dense fog.

    Really cool!

  • Just so happens the author and singer of this song is the brother of a great friend of mine. I have been hunting with his brother for years out in Colorado and knew he was a musician but never heard any of the music until this past weekend when he stopped by the house. "In Cahoots" was the name of the band. I now have the full "In Cahoots" collection on my computer :) Pretty cool!!!

  • @sheriff923

    @DefenderJP55

    Cahoots sang this in Denver at the Four seasons but with 7 member band, lead vocal were Loyd Barnett and Ann Marie Barnett, in 1983 which is the copyright of the vinyl record.

    Ms. M

    I've got the album In Cahoots and love their House of the Rising Sun but haven't been able to find it by them. Are there more than one albums of their music.

    M

  • loved this song when i was younger thank you for posting. : )

  • @DefenderJP55 In Cahoots isn't the band I saw in Denver at the Four Seasons. it was a five or six member band and had a woman who sang a lot with them.

  • Super job!! It's great that you are letting people who have never heard the song get to experience it. Everyone should!

  • Just want to thank you all from the bottom of my heart for your nice comments and loyalty to this old song! Don't really understand why it is still popular, but as I said, I so do appreciate it! Go Broncos,, Go Saints, and don't let the Parlangua get ya! p.s. Great Job on the video, maddtears.

  • @Parlangua1 Because it's totally incredible!! that's why! I remember going to see Cahoots and buying your record at the bar, can't remember the bar's name. I never could find you after it burned down. Why? And why not sell the song now. Everyone in the country would love it .Josh Turner, for instance, would actually do it justice. Also, if you wrote Parlengua and Brown Eyes, why not more ? All the American Idol wanna be's have NOTHING on you!

  • @Parlangua1 Are you guys still playing?!? I saw one vidoe that was "In Cahoots" and think it might be you. If so, where can you be seen for crying out loud?

  • cahoots was a local band from Denver, way back in the 80s

  • Thank you for the time and effort you put into doing this, how original, it fit the song so well, my husband and I loved it...thanks again, sad but catchy song.

  • The folks at cowboy lyrics. com are a big help. Put in a search for this song and see what happens. Wedge

  • This is cool to have a local hit of the early 80's posted. I remember the Cahoots in the Aurora location called the 4 seasons. however a fire destroyed it and the land supports a KFC and a gas station? Great times, great people and of course a great band. From a Colorado native.

  • cool I've been reading about local legends (mostly new orleans) so I've never heard the story of the parlangua before. Which part of louisiana does it come from?

  • moppylynn.....No, darlin, I don't know who your brother would be, but he had no hand in writing this song, and he didn't sing it. I wrote this song solo and also sang it myself of course helped greatly by the great band I was with at the time, Cahoots.
