Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Big Mamou From: GUEST,garyboy Date: 26 Jun 18 - 08:06 AM This song was first recorded in 1928 by Leo Soileau as Basile Waltz. Leo recorded it later in the 1930s as Le Gran Mamou. The great Harry Choates had a hit with it in 1950 and then it was recorded by many artists. Link Davis copyrighted it in 1950 as Big Mamou. |

Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Big Mamou From: Jim Dixon Date: 18 Nov 10 - 07:17 AM My guess is that "Jais ke-tais yeir oh soir" is a phonetic spelling for "J'ai quitté hier au soir" (I left last night) Likewise "Pous allais ah Grand Mamou" = "Pour aller à Grand Mamou" (To go to Grand Mamou) |

Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Big Mamou From: GUEST,Bambocheur Date: 17 Oct 01 - 10:24 AM The duo by Hank Williams Jr. and Jimmy C. Newman is somewhat like what i have given below. Williams repeats the following line in English. At two points in the song, Newman gives the following verses in French. Why'd you go and leave me in big Mamou, you left me for another alone and so blue. Oh come back, please come back, come back and live with me in big Mamou (or something like that). Oh s'en allez a Grand Mamou. Jolie monde, mais jolie fille, moi, j'connais j'merite pas ca. Oh, hah, hah, oh mignonne, oh mais moi j'm'en va moi tout seule a Grand Mamou. Translation: Oh, going to big mamou. Pretty world/everything, pretty girl, I know I didn't deserve that. Oh ha ha, oh pretty (one), I'm heading alone to big mamou. |

Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Big Mamou From: Sorcha Date: 15 Oct 01 - 09:21 PM Lots and lots of references to Big Mamou (or Grand Mamou) but didn't find any actual lyrics. Sorry. |
Subject: Big Mamou From: GUEST,Cookie Date: 15 Oct 01 - 08:27 PM Does anyone have the lyrics to "Big Mamou"? I believe it is considered Cajun Bluegrass. Several people have recorded this song such as-----Jimmie C. Newman and Frenchie Burke and Hank Williams Jr.can't I'm particularly interested in the French lyrics that Frenchie uses on the second verse. Thanks, Cookie |
