@wackyruss ... Yap... T'as cassé, T'as cassé mon coeur ( in english = You've broken, you've broken my heart...) .... simple... but still looking for the first french sentence I , even as french, can't understand... I don't think it's "Co Fa, Co Fa, Je de Louisiane"... any other suggestion ???

This was my first zydeco album

One of my Favorite songs EVER. I would love to find the lyrics. Please share them if you find them.

is he saying 'et toi' at da begining?
i always hear it n zydeco songs

My mom is from South Louisiana and grew up speaking Cajun French, so I can make some of this out. I think the "co fa" sounds a lot like "quoi faire," meaning "what to do?". As someone else has said "t'as cassé mon coeur" means "you broke my heart" (though at first I heard it as "tracasser," which means trouble or worry and wouldn't be out of place here, either). :-)

@wackyruss basically he's asking his girl why she did him wrong and took his love and ran

Great song. My Cajun grandpa and I used to ride around in his big red truck on Sundays and listen to Zydeco on the AM stations when I was a kid :)

Does anyone know where you can find the French lyrics to this song?
I'm hearing "Co Fa, Co Fa, Je de Louisiane" or something like that. He also says something like "taca se taca se mon coeur" I know "mon coeur" means "my heart". Any suggestions?

@wackyruss i just scoured around the Internet looking, but I wasn't able to come up with anything solid at all. so I just sent an email to Keith Frank's people and they will hopefully respond to my inquiry soon!

I love the whole CD. Gets me movin'. This is my fave. I also enjoy "Lula, Don't Ya Go To Bingo" track by Boozoo Chavis
