Lyrics:

Version 1

You see me there well I ain't no fool
I'm one smart Frenchman, never been to school
(?) in the creole town
To Start let me show you, your way to town

You let your bon ton roulie
You let the mule-e pull-e
Now don't you be no bully
You let the bon ton roulet

I've got a creole gal, she's one fine dish
But she's got ways like the Opera fish
She done do nothing but raise sand all night
But when it come to loving she's a macho right

We let the bon ton roulet
We let the mule-e pull-e
Now don't you be no bully
We let the bon ton roulet

You want to have yourself some real fine time
Go down in Louisiana and you'll get you one
You find and cut the pain all down the line
I've got to pick cause she's really fine

We let your bon ton roulet
We let the mule-e pull-e
Now don't you be no bully
We let the bon ton roulet

At the (?) bazaar or the baseball game
At the Frenchtown now, It's all the same
You wanna have fun now, you got to go
Way out the country to the Zydeco

We let your bon ton roulet
We let the mule-e pull-e
Now don't you be no bully
You let the bon ton roulet

Verions 2
Here's that French man right back again
With that fine little number that will never end

I've been everywhere and I've been all around
But here's what you do in the Creole town

Just let your bon ton roulet
And let your mule-e pull-e
Now don't you be no bully
You let the bon ton roulet

You find your girl and you hand her a line
And everything is going mighty fine

You can take her to the lala, yes it's true
But you'll have the mother and the children too

Just let your bon ton roulet
And let your mule-e pull-e
Now don't you be no bully
You let the bon ton roulet

We were jumping and jiving at the Jamboree
We were having lots of fun you can believe you me

I was a wet potato picker, they were all insane
Then I saw my cotton picker she was raising cane

Just let your bon ton roulet
And let the mule-e pull-e
Now don't you be no bully
You let the bon ton roulet

Now we speed down to have a little bit of fun
But we ran into a pappy with a shotgun

He said no you don't boy, I'll burn your hide
So went right on the back inside

Just let your bon ton roulet
And let your mule-e pull-e
Now don't you be no bully
You let the bon ton roulet

Let it roulet

You wanna know what the bon ton roulet means
That's a good time rollin', like you have never seen
You grab your girl and you get in the groove
And when the feeling hits you, you've got to move

And let the bon ton roulet
And let the mule-e pull-e
Now don't you be no bully
You let the bon ton roulet
