Hank Williams Jr. - Big Mamou Lyrics






Oh s'en allez a Grand Mamou
Jolis mondes mais jolie fille
Moi j'connais j'mérite pas ca
Hey ha-ha hey Mignonne
Oh mais moi j'men va
Moi tout seul a Grand Mamou

Why'd you go and leave me in Big Mamou
You left me for another alone and so blue
Please come back oh come back
I know what I say and I did not say that

How come you run from Big Mamou
Can't you hear me loud clearly calling for you
Hey ha ha ooh la la
Hurry hurry home to your lonely papa

Oh s'en allez a Grand Mamou...

Why'd you go and leave me in Big Mamou
You left me for another alone and so blue
I know what I say - I did not say that
Come back and love me in Big Mamou

Why did you go away and leave me in Big Mamou
You left me for another alone and so blue
Oh la la ooh ha ha
Come on home to lonely papa

I Know what I say I know what I do
I didn't say or do that in Big Mamou
I did not say that in Big Mamou

    My younger son was addicted to Hank Jr and Willie Nelson. When He was about five or six, he asked me if he could turn off Sesame Street to listen to these two singers. His daddy would take him to every concert in our area, (I, a Yankee, opted to stay home after attending one of the concerts). He was amazed that his daddy and I had actually been to Big Mamou. LOL!

    Love Jimmy C. Newman and Hank Jr. together, especially on this. Great party song.

  16. H.... B....

    This song was a hit in New Orleans when I was a kid there between 1950 and 1954.  But I have not been able to find on Youtube that "original" recording.  Hank Jr. pronounces the "a" in "Mamou" differently than in the "original" I'm talking about -- it was "Mah-moo" phonetically in the "original," it was all done in English, and there was no beat to it as in Hank Jr.'s version.  I much prefer the "original," and I'm afraid it's lost.  I believe the singer was male, with a rather high-pitched voice.
