It was on May 11, 1965 ... that Clifton and Cleveland Chenier entered the Gold Star studio, in Houston. The tape rolling, the brothers shared a few words in Creole French. ... Then the pair, backed by drummer Madison Guidry, launched into what would become Chenier's signature piece, Zydeco Sont pas Salé. On it, Chenier strips down his piano accordion and treats it like a single-key button model. ... Over his mighty rhythm he sings some lines about two mischievous dogs named Hip and Taiaut that date back to a 1934 Cajun record by Joseph and Cléoma Falcon, Ils la volet man trancas (They Stole My Sled). ... Chenier couples the old song with. ... lines about snap beans.
O Maman! Quoi elle va faire avec le nègre? Zydeco est pas salé; zydeco est pas salé. T'as volé mon traîneau; t'as volé mon traîneau. Regarde Hip et Taiaut; regarde Hip et Taiaut.
Oh Mama! What's she going to do with the Negro? The snap beans aren't salty; the snap beans aren't salty. You stole my sled; you stole my sled. Look at Hip and Taiaut; look at Hip and Taiaut.
