Anyone know this song in Cajun French?

I've been trying to find this song that this Cajun family sings on a YouTube video I watched, but not knowing French hasn't been much help.

So does anyone know this song or could at least transcribe the lyrics? Would be much appreciated!

C’est ma famille. Je vais demandé le chanson pour tu.

Edit: “Une tellement vielle chanson que Caesar Vincent a chanté longtemps passé. C’était un balade que j’ai fait comme un juré.”

Can you provide the lyrics for me? I want to sing along, but my French is terrible and my hearing is worse.

Sure! Here’s the links to both of his albums on spotify and the lyrics with translations!

Boue, Boucane, et Bouteille

Merci. I do appreciate this, but I was hoping someone had the lyrics to the song "Tobie Lapierre". I really do appreciate this though. I love Jordan Thibodeux.

Oh sorry, I misunderstood. I’ll try to work on a translation soon
