Blue bayou

Blue Bayou - Lynn Anderson

I feel so bad I got a worried mind

I'm so lonesome all of the time

Since I left my baby

Behind on blue bayou

Saving nickels

Saving dimes

Working till the sun don't shine

Looking forward to happier times

On blue bayou

I'm going back some day

Come what may to blue bayou

Where the folks are fine

And the world is mine on blue bayou

Where those fishin boats

With their sails afloat

If I could only see

That familiar sunrise

Through sleepy eyes

How happy I'd be

Gonna see my baby again

Gonna be with some of my friends

Maybe I'll feel better again

On blue bayou

Saving nickels

Saving dimes

Working till the sun don't shine

Looking forward to happier times

On blue bayou

I'm going back some day

Come what may to blue bayou

Where the folks are fine

And the world is mine on blue bayou

Where those fishing boats

With their sails afloat

If I could only see

That familiar sunrise through

Sleepy eyes

How happy I'd be

With that boy of mine by my side

The silver moon

And the evening tide

Some sweet day gonna take away

This hurting inside

I'll never be blue

My dreams come true

On blue

Bayou
