I can't stop thinkin' about her She's the prettiest flower on the vine She's a dark-eyed Akkadian angel She's sweeter than the sweetest muscadine I see her each day but she just passes by We've never spoken a word But I know that she'll be at the party tonight And I'm gonna walk up to her Cherie, Cherie, won't you dance with me? Vos a v'que moi ma jolie There's a Creole moon shinin' over Bayou Coulee Won't you dance with me, Cherie? Her daddy's got money and I'm a poor boy But I won't let that keep us apart If I get a chance, just this one dance I know she'll see what's in my heart Cherie, Cherie, won't you dance with me? Vos a v'que moi ma jolie There's a Creole moon shinin' over Bayou Coulee Won't you dance with me, Cherie? There's a small Cajun band up on the stand Playin' in three-quarter time I gather my courage and walk 'cross the floor And take her pretty little hand in mine Cherie, Cherie, won't you dance with me? Vos a v'que moi ma jolie There's a Creole moon shinin' over Bayou Coulee Won't you dance with me, Cherie? Yeah, there's a Creole moon shinin' over Bayou Coulee Won't you dance with me, Cherie?
