Born On The Bayou

John Fogerty

Now when I just was a little boy

Standin to my daddy's knee

My poppa said son don't let the man get you

And do what he done to me

I can remember the fourth of July

Runnin' through the backwood bare

And I can still hear my old hound dog barkin'

Chasin' down a hoodoo there

Chasin' down a hoodoo there

Born on the Bayou

Born on the Bayou

Born on the Bayou

Wish I was back on the Bayou

Rollin' with some cajun queen

Wishin' I where a fast freight train

Just a chooglin' on down to new orleans

Born on the Bayou

Born on the Bayou

Born on the Bayou

I can remember the fourth of July

Runnin' through the backwood bare

And I can still hear my old hound dog barkin'

Chasin' down a hoodoo there

Chasin' down a hoodoo there

Born on the Bayou

Born on the Bayou

Born on the Bayou
