Текст песни Eartha Kitt — Chantez Les Bas (1958)

Down in Lou-siana, Louisiana - Land of Creole Sues,
Patois, Mardi Gras and romantic blues.
Once I heard a lover, when work was over strum his Creole croone
To his lovey dovey underneath the 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 likes 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'd like to sing for you just what he said: Oh in the mornin' baby

jes' fore a day, in the mornin'
jes' fore a day, in the mornin'
jes' fore a day, New Orleans, hey, hey! Oh in the mornin'

Eartha Kitt Chantez-Les Bas (Sing 'Em Low) found on

jes' fore a day, in the mornin'
jes' fore a day, in the mornin'
jes' fore a day, I'll come and get you and take you away, far, far away.

Chantez les bas. Far far away. Chantez les bas.
