Born on the Bayou

Now when I was just a little boy

Standin to my daddys knee

My poppa said son dont let the man get you

Do what he done to me

Cause hell get you

Cause hell get you now now

And 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 were a fast freight train

Just a chooglin on down to new orleans Born on the bayou Born on the bayou Born on the bayou

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
