《That Was Your Mother》歌词

[00:00:13] A long time ago yeah

[00:00:15] Before you was born dude

[00:00:17] When I was still single

[00:00:19] And life was great

[00:00:21] I held this job as a traveling salesman

[00:00:26] That kept me moving from state to state

[00:00:30] Well I'm standing on the corner of Lafayette

[00:00:33] State of Louisiana

[00:00:35] Wondering where a city boy could go

[00:00:39] To get a little conversation

[00:00:41] Drink a little red wine

[00:00:43] Catch a little bit of those Cajun girls

[00:00:45] Dancing to Zydeco

[00:01:12] Along come a young girl

[00:01:14] She's pretty as a prayerbook

[00:01:16] Sweet as an apple on Christmas day

[00:01:18] I said good gracious can this be my luck

[00:01:25] If that's my prayerbook

[00:01:26] Lord let us pray

[00:01:29] Well I'm standing on the corner of Lafayette

[00:01:32] State of Louisiana

[00:01:34] Wondering where a city boy could go

[00:01:36] To get her in a conversation

[00:01:40] Drink a little red wine

[00:01:42] Dance to the music of Clifton Chenier

[00:01:44] The King of the Bayou

[00:01:54] Well that was your mother

[00:01:56] And that was your father

[00:01:58] Before you was born dude

[00:02:00] When life was great

[00:02:02] You are the burden of my generation

[00:02:04] I sure do love you

[00:02:06] But let's get that straight

[00:02:11] Well I'm standing on the corner of Lafayette

[00:02:14] Across the street from The Public

[00:02:15] Heading down to the Lone Star Cafe

[00:02:19] Maybe get a little conversation

[00:02:22] Drink a little red wine

[00:02:24] Standing in the shadow of Clifton Chenier

[00:02:26] Dancing the night away
