05 Jan 03 - 03:15 PM (#859320) Subject: Lyr Req: Clifton Chenier From: Marc Would anyone be willing to take a stab at writing out Clifton Cheniers french words to I'm a hog for you baby. I don't quite understand the creole, but I don't think it's a translation of the English. Thanks |

06 Jan 03 - 12:12 AM (#859564) Subject: Lyr Add: I'M A HOG FOR YOU BABY From: reggie miles Submitted for your approval, picture if you will, aging hipsters playing outdated material on antiquated instruments, hopelessly lost in the acoustic zone. I think the Seigel Schwall Band recorded this one. (chorus) I'm a hog for you baby. I can't get enough of your love. I'm a hog for you baby. I can't get enough of your love. When I go to sleep at night, You're the only thing I'm thinkin' of. The first little piggy had pizza. The second piggy ate potato chips. But this little piggy's comin' over your house, He gonna nibble on your sweet lips. (chorus) The first little piggy went to London. The second piggy went to Paris France. But this little piggy's comin' over your house, He's gonna jump right into your pants. (chorus) The first little piggy went to (for fun name a place of your choice). The second piggy went to Hong Kong. But this little piggy's comin' over your house, He's gonna rock you all night long. (chorus) |

I'll go listen to it, & see if i can make out anything else - LOVE Clifton (I saw him in person long ago at the late lamented "Inn of the Beginning" in Cotati, CAlif. |

06 Jan 03 - 02:31 PM (#859979) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Clifton Chenier From: reggie miles That last line of the chorus might alternately sung as, You're the only one I'm dreamin' of. On a related note, I don't think that it's paticularly necessary to follow word for word in a song of this very suggestive nature. It's a fun song. So I think you should have fun with it when you sing it. Alter it as I suggested in the last verse, or as much as you've a mind to, or make up some of your own verses. Go wild and crazy! wild and wacky weg |
