J'ETAIS AU BAL {HIER SOIR} (I Went to the Dance Last Night). Cajun, Two-Step. USA, southwestern Louisiana. A Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AA'BB {Greenblatt}: BBA(Vocal)BBAA(Vocal)BBA(Vocal)BB {Francois}. Raymond François (1990) believes the tune for this popular Cajun song is borrowed from an American one, and in fact "Oh, Susannah" and "Get Along Home Cindy" (particularly the latter) seem to be related tunes.
