Subject: song, "Bayou Pon Pon"
Greg, Here's another song not readily connected to Hank Williams, but he
wrote it and gave half to Jimmie Davis for recording it.
This is the work of Tim Ausburn. Written by Hank Williams and Jimmie Davis.
Rec. by Jimmie Davis, 10-14-51.
BAYOU PON PON
(A) THERE'S A PLACE I KNOW YOU'LL WANT TO GO,
(D) IF YOU'RE EVER FEELING LOW,
FOR THE (A) HAPPIEST PLACE BENEATH THE SUN,
IS SATURDAY NIGHT ON BA - (E7) YOU PON (A) PON.
OH THE FIDDLES SING AND THE GUITARS RING,
THEY HAVE NO THOUGHT OF CARE OR PAIN,
IT'S TIME TO DANCE THEIR WORK IS DONE,
IT'S SATURDAY NIGHT ON BA - YOU PON PON.
OH SWEET MARIE SHE'LL DANCE WITH ME,
AND SUCH A SIGHT YOU'LL NEVER SEE,
TE - RESE, ANNETTE AND JOLE` - BLON,
WILL ALL BE THERE AT BA - YOU PON PON.
IT'S A JAMBOREE AT ST. LANDREE,
THEY HAVE A GOOD TIME, OH YES, OUI!, OUI!,
THEY COME FROM ST. CHARLES, ST. JAMES, ST. JOHN,
IT'S SATURDAY NIGHT ON BA - YOU PON PON.
