Eartha Kitt - Quality Music 100 (100 Recordings Remastered)

Chantez les bas (Remastered)

Down in Louisiana, Louisiana
Land of Creole Sues,
Patois, Mardi Gras,
and romantic blues.
Once I heard a lover,
when work was over
strum a Creole croone
To his lovey dovey
underneath a Dixie Moon.
I heard him say just so:

Chantez-les bas,
that means in Creole:
sing 'em low.
I like that pretty word
Chantez-les bas,
She liked her blues played sweetly and slow
Oh...
Chantez-les bas
I can't forget that serenade,
and if you listen to me
Just for a while,
I'll try to sing for you what he said:
Oh in the mornin' baby jes' fore day,
in the mornin' jes' fore day,
New Orleans, hey, hey!
Oh in the mornin' baby jes' fore day,
in the mornin' jes' fore day,
in the mornin' jes' fore day,
I'll come to get you and take you away,
far, far away.
Chantez-les bas,
far, far away.
Chantez-les bas
