Dr. John – Bon Temps Rouler Lyrics

Blues

Laisse le bon temps rouler

Let's go disco dancin'
The latest kind of no love romancin'
If you think you're junkie Jack
It'll make no difference if you're dancin' in the back

Bon temps rouler, let's have some fun today
And don't fly low if you can fly high
You're gonna hit those people way up in the sky
Bon temps rouler, bon temps rouler, bon temps rouler
Vive le bon temps, tres bien, bon temps rouler, ooh la la

Let's get stoned this morning
Don't give your conscience no word of warning
It sure feels good being bad
It'll let you in the world and a wake-up you had

Bon temps rouler, let's have some fun today
And don't fly low if you can fly high
You're gonna hit those people way up in the sky
Bon temps rouler, bon temps rouler, bon temps rouler
Vive le bon temps, tres bien, bon temps rouler, ooh la la

When the saints go marching in
There'll be no difference between virtue and sin
Come on drummer man, sell your thing
Now do me some of that New Orleans swing
I got a song I'm gonna sing
I got a dance that I wanna do
I got some money and I'm ready to spend it
Bon temps rouler, isn't you my friend?

Bon temps rouler, let's have some fun today
And don't fly low if you can fly high
You're gonna hit those people way up in the sky
Bon temps rouler, bon temps rouler, bon temps rouler
Vive le bon temps, tres bien, bon temps rouler, ooh la la

Bon temps rouler, let's have some fun today
And don't fly low if you can fly high
You're gonna hit those people way up in the sky
Bon temps rouler, bon temps rouler, bon temps rouler
Vive le bon temps, tres bien, bon temps rouler, ooh la la

Bon temps rouler, bon temps rouler, bon temps rouler
Bon temps rouler, rouler, bon temps rouler
Laisse le bon temps rouler
