I Yi Yi
Way down in Louisiana
Underneath the evergreens,
I was sitting there and thinking
When along came a Cajun queen.
I said, "I'm going to a party,
Baby, do you want to go?"
She said, "I yi yi, I yi yi,
I yi yi don't know".
I yi yi, I yi yi, I yi yi, no no.
I yi yi, I yi yi, I yi yi, no no.
Way down on the bayou,
With my friend Thibodeaux,
We was drinking wine and feeling fine,
When he jumped in his pirogue.
He said, "I'm going to the city,
Baby, do you want to go,
I said, "I yi yi, I yi yi,
I just don't think so"
I Yi Yi
En lo profundo de Louisiana
Bajo los siempreverdes,
Estaba sentado allí pensando
Cuando llegó una reina cajún.
Le dije, 'Voy a una fiesta,
Nena, ¿quieres ir?'
Ella dijo, 'I yi yi, I yi yi,
I yi yi no sé'.
I yi yi, I yi yi, I yi yi, no no.
I yi yi, I yi yi, I yi yi, no no.
En lo profundo del bayou,
Con mi amigo Thibodeaux,
Estábamos tomando vino y sintiéndonos bien,
Cuando saltó en su piroga.
Él dijo, 'Voy a la ciudad,
Nena, ¿quieres ir?'
Yo dije, 'I yi yi, I yi yi,
Simplemente no lo creo'
