Black Water Bayou - Tanya Tucker

Growin' up on the bayou

Can drive you outta your mind

Marie was just a youngin'

When she left the black water behind

It all happened one night

In the back of Jimmy's car

Jimmy said Marie you are so pretty

Well you oughta be a movie star

So she packed up her backwood streams

Stole her mama's maybelline

And took the train to new orleans

And swore she was never gonna go go

Back to the black water bayou

Mama said child don't go back on your raisin'

There ain't no place in the city

For a pretty little backstreet cajun

The long hot nights will leave you cold

And there's a devil waitin' on

Every corner tryin' to buy your soul

And with no where to go and nothin' to eat

She got a job dancin' down on bourbon street

But the shoes she's wearin' on her feet

Don't dance like they danced with Jimmy lebeaux

Back on the black water bayou

In the heat of the night

It was the very last show

She walked onto the stage

With her heart and her head hung low

She started to cry cry

As the curtain rolled

She found herself lookin'

In the black water eyes of Jimmy lebeaux

Well he picked up her shattered dreams

Off that stage in new orleans

And said Marie don't you think it's time to go

Back to the black water bayou

Don't you know it's time to go

Back to the black water bayou

Growin' up on the bayou

Can drive you outta your mind

Marie was just a youngin'

When she left the black water behind

It all happened one night

In the back of Jimmy's car

Jimmy said Marie you're so pretty

Well you oughta be a movie star

Growin' up on the bayou

Can drive you outta your mind
