Underneath a Cajun Moon

John Scott Cree


Louis Armstrong and Doctor John, Illinois Jacquet, Jimmy Noone
Kid Ory urge The Meters on, underneath a Cajun moon

Sing of brown skin Blind Snooks Eaglin, with a voice to heal my wounds
Irma Thomas, Neville Brothers, underneath a Cajun moon

Joe Oliver play me your Creole, take me to old New Orleans
Professor Longhair and Jelly Roll, feed me like rice and red beans

Show us the way, Specialty, Little Richard come down soon
Bobby Blue Bland meet the Fat Man, underneath a Cajun moon

Show me South Rampart and Bourbon Street, I want to see the parade
George Lewis play me your Burgundy Street, Allan Toussaint got it made

Jon and Brian and Allan Taylor, play together sometime soon
Give me Louisiana rhythms, underneath a Cajun moon

Frogman hurting the one he loves, Huey Smith playing the clown
He got no blues on his own Sea Cruise, no pneumonia getting him down

Suis ne bon pas, just say "et toi", hear a Dave Bartholemew tune
Get Slim Harpo to Cosimo's, underneath a Cajun moon
