  • @OfirBeck It's Cajun French. Like many Cajun songs, lyrics are fungible depending on the artist, but most versions run along these lines:

    "J'ai été au bal hier soir, tout habillé en noir;

    C'est ca l'habille que moi j'aime",

    pour courtiser ma belle"

    In English,

    "I went to the dance last night,

    Dressed all in black;

    That's what I like to wear,

    to court my beautiful girl."

    Black is often replaced by blue the second time the verse is sung, and sometimes "ma belle" with "les veuves" (widows).

  • @rhniraq does anybody know where I can find the lyrics to that?

    (is he singing in english or french?)
