Lyrics:

I’ll Get By
Artspurg 2007 SABAM

Met a gal, and I can’t dance,
At the bar, I stood my chance,
Got so drunk, lost my touch,
Poor old me, she was too much,
But we’ll get by

My old dad told me one day,
Son, don’t you throw your life away
Only thing now I can say
My life sucks, anyway
I’ll get by

Early up, I went down town,
Got so drunk my face fell down,
Lots of strangers there and then,
Someone dragged me home again,
So I’ll get by

Got lots of friends when I was rich
But I got wed to a mean old
All day long she nags & shouts
By the hair I threw her out
I’ll get by

Since I’m poor, who cares for me?
But fair is fair as I can see
Won’t you all just let me be?
Walk the line, it works for me
I’ll get by

Down in the Bayouland – Melodeon, or Cajun Accordion

A new song, based on a common folk-tale from the Carribean, played bare bones and in need of a fiddle too, by Astro, or Nout Grupstra, from stringband the Crooks. All © ARTSPURG, SABAM 2007. Please see http://www.astromusic.org or http://www.crooks-stringband.nl for further information …… the used C-accordion was built by Marc Savoy early 2007.

Lyrics:

Down in the Bayou Land © Artspurg SABAM 2006

- Down in the Bayou land, –
once lived a man –
Appellé Monsier Boudain, had a Cajun Band –
One day the wife she left, she had enough –
But he fiddles on; Cajuns are tough –
– – –
Il a tenu, le joi de vive –
Bought a little ape, for the lonely eve –
When he left the house, on a working day –
Ape stole the violin; it’s the monkey’s way –
– – – –
As Boudain came home, the ape was gone –
Perché sur le toit, et joue le violon –
Fierce was his bowing hand, he played for two –
A scié le violon, quite through and through –
– – –
And so Monsieur Boudain, il a pas tout –
Took a sawn-off gun’, and aimed to shoot –
Now with the monkey gone, et le violon –
Happily the wife returned, dedans la maison –
– – –
Down in the Bayou land, pendant la nuit –
Sometimes a fiddle’s heard, and you won’t sleep –
Now a story grows, day by day –
It’s a monkey’s ghost, ça c’est la vérité –
– – – – – – – – – -
