Johnny Horton "I Got a Hole in My Pirogue" |
(Johnny Horton - Tillman Franks) Well, I went outta fishin' to make a little mon To take to Cajun Leena so we could have some fun On the way back I knocked a hole in my bowl I got a hole in my pirogue, I can't go see my gal. Chorus: The purtiest sight that you ever have seen Some moonlight night down in New Orleans I'm up the river, just around the bend I got a hole in my pirogue, I just cain't hold it in. --- Instrumental --- Well, Cajun Leena's waitin' with tears in her eyes Mouchin' and a crouchin' on a crawfish pie I can't smell, no feeling floatin' through the air I got a hole in my pirogue, I can't go see my share. Chorus: The purtiest sight that you ever have seen Some moonlight night down in New Orleans I'm up the river, just around the bend I got a hole in my pirogue, I just cain't hold it in. --- Instrumental --- Yeah, I'm here on the bayou, sittin' all alone With a busted bottom and I can't pole it home Cajun Leena's waitin' lonesome as can be I got a hole in my pirogue, I cain't go see my she. Chorus: The purtiest sight that you ever have seen Some moonlight night down in New Orleans I'm up the river, just around the bend I got a hole in my pirogue, I just cain't hold it in...
