LYRICS- ZYDECO SANT PAS SALE
(Clifton Chenier)

Eh, maman,
Eh, maman,
Les haricots sont pas salés,
Les haricots sont pas salés.

T'au volé mon traîneau,
T'au volé mon traîneau,
Garde hip et taïaut,
Les haricots sont pas salés.

T'as volé mon gilet,
T'as volé mon chapeau,
Garde hip et taïaut,
Les haricots sont pas salés.

Hey, mom,
Hey, mom,
The beans are not salted,
The beans are not salted.
You stole my sleigh,
You stole my sleigh,
Guard hip and taïaut,
The beans are not salted.
You stole my vest,
You stole my hat,
Guard hip and taïaut,

The beans are not salted.
