I am trying to find the lyrics to the cajun song 'Rolling Pin'. So far, I have managed to find out that it is on the CD 'Bayou Cadillac' By BeauSoleil, but that is all. I would be grateful for any pointers. Many thanks Julie

Therein lies the problem. I only know that the tune does have words by surfing the net trying to find them. There are lyrics of cajun songs posted on other web-sites, but unfortunately not this one. to date I have only been able to find the information in my original post.

This song sounds kinda fun, although I only heard a sound sample. Probably not the one you want, though.

ROLLING PIN

Well it's one a.m. and I'm out of gas.
The last-chance pump to home I already passed.
But it's one a.m. and I'm out of gas.
Mean miss curfew's gonna have my ass.
She'll think I'm givin' her a great big load
When I tell her my affair with the open road.

She's gonna hit me with her rolling pin
Again and again and again and again and again.
She's gonna ask me where I've been
When she hits me in the head with her rolling pin.

Well it's two a.m. and the front tire's flat.
I haven't got a notion where the hell I'm at.
But it's two a.m. and the front tire's flat.
Mean miss curfew's gonna have my ass.
She'll think I'm givin' her a great big load
When I tell her my affair with the open road.

She's gonna hit me with her rolling pin
Again and again and again and again and again.
She's got the strength of a hundred men
When she hits me in the head with her rolling pin.

Well it's three a.m. and the engine dies.
She'll never put an ounce of her faith in my alibis.
But it's three a.m. and the engine's dead.
Mean miss curfew's gonna tell the world she's been misled.
She'll think I'm givin' her a great big load
When I tell her my affair with the open road.

She's gonna hit me with her rolling pin
Again and again and again and again and again.
She'll keep swinging till she does me in
When she hits me in the head with her rolling pin.

It's the crack of dawn and I pull in.
The door swings open and it's her.
She don't have a rolling pin,
But it's the crack of dawn and I just pull in.
She says she's glad I'm alive.
Don't care where I've been.

She didn't hit me with her rolling pin.
She didn't ask me where I'd been.
She gives me love and takes me in.
Slaps my face and says with a grin,
"Don't do that again
Or I'll hit you with my rolling pin again and again!"

[Recorded by Eddie from Ohio on "I Rode Fido Home", 1995.]

'Rolling Pin' -recorded by Michael Doucet 'Bayou Cadillac' BeauSoleil

*Oh bébé, j'étais soulé hier au soir
Et quand j'ai rentré, papa m'était faché
Il m'a menacé, commencé à cogner
Quand il m'a cogné avec sa rolling pin

Oh bébé pourquoi tu fais comme ça (?)
Tu connais, comment j'ai esquivé(?)
Tu parles plus (?), bébé t'es pas comme ça
Elle m'a cogné avec sa rolling pin

Hier au soir, j'étais apres me souler.
J'ai arrive, ma femme etait faché.
Elle m'embrasser devant sa compagnie.
Elle m'a cogné avec sa rolling pin.

Ti connais, bebe, que j'essayais.
Essayais, catin, de plus buver.
Ti connais, bebe, j'suis pas comme ca.
Ti m'a cogné avec sa rolling pin.
