Now, when I was just a little boy |
|
Standin' to my Daddy's knee |
|
My Poppa said, "Son, don't let the man get you |
|
Do what he done to me" |
|
'Cause he'll get you |
|
'Cause he'll 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 |
|
Do it, do it, do it, do it |
|
Oh, Lord |
|
Oh get back boy |
|
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 |
|
All right |
|
Do, do, do, do, do |
|
Mmm, oh |
