Papa Noel

Roy Botkin

[Intro]
That sound like Christmas in Louisiana, y'all
Come on up here and get you some
Now

[Verse 1]
Hey Beau, let's go and get pirogue and push-pole down the bayou
I want to see the Christmas tree, dance-o fais dodo
Have a big time and cut a shine where all will be gay-o
Oh, Santa Claus will come tonight down on the bayou

[Chorus]
Papa Noël will bring the bells and all will be gay-o
I'm gonna be at the Christmas tree with my ma chère amie-o
So ring the chimes, it's Christmas time, pick up that old banjo
Santa Claus will come tonight down on the bayou

[Post-Chorus]
Hey
Oh
Sure feels good

[Verse 2]
See ma Mannan and ma Parrain, I know they'll all be there-o
See ol' Quelqu'un and Mamoun, Bébé and Jo-Jo
See Jolivet, that's my sweet pet, I'ma get me some sugar
Oh, Santa Claus will come tonight down on the bayou

[Chorus]
So roll the rug, let's kiss and hug and let's all be gay-o
A merry Christmas to you all and a happy bonne année-o
I'm gonna dance all through the night 'til daylight with my babe-o
Oh, Santa Claus will come tonight down on the bayou
Play it

[Instrumental Break]
Put the dog out
Oh yeah
Come on y'all
You know what?

[Verse 3]
Dionne wants a push-y-on, a pistolette and yo-yo
My Jolivet, oh my sweet pet, Lord chère amie-o
Now Auntie Luce will cook the goose, she gonna serve the gumbo
Santa Claus will come tonight down on the bayou

[Chorus]
Papa Noël will bring the bells and all will be gay-o
I'm gonna be at the Christmas tree with my ma chère amie-o
So ring the chimes, it's Christmas time, plunk that old piano
Oh, Santa Claus will come tonight down on the bayou

[Post-Chorus]
I see him
There he goes
He's comin' y'all
Papa Noël
