Article published in the "Times of Acadiana" -

"Trahan's first CD in 10 years, "Keep Walking," is the freshest and most riveting zydeco/Cajun CD out right now. His 16 original songs (I repeat, 16 original songs) are flavored with zydeco, Cajun, reggae, rap, flute, saxophone, clarinet, children singing background vocals and more.

Trahan strays from the usual path of recycled Cajun oldies and zydeco one-liners or tired lyrics about a musician's love affair with himself and his stable of women. Trahan's songs are thought-provoking stories of unity, karma, encouragement, love and just enjoying life."

[ZydecoGuitar]

It's a washboard or "frottoir". It's used as a percussion instrument, employing the ribbed metal surface as a rhythm instrument by rubbing it with spoons !!

"hey mr. bernard.. i have a question of you.....mr. bernard "a question for me?" ..horace..."yes I 'd like to marrry your daugher!" ..mr. bernard..."welll I don't know about that!!!" ..eventually Mr. Bernard caves in and says.."ok.. ya'll go do that"...giiving his permission

[ChadHebert]

the song is about him asking his father in law "Mr. Bernard" if he can marry his daughter .... Horace is married to his daughter now... Mr. Bernard is the guy playing the rub board.

Don't know what he's singing about Mr Bernard but I love it anyway!
