Big Bayou
I took a long, long trip to the city
I was determined to get somewhere Spent all my hard earned money I had
saved to put me there
Big bayou where did you go To the river that's
running slow And to the Gulf of Mexico Big bayou carry me home
I
took a cotton picking job in Memphis And the people there treated me good
But my luck run bad in Nashville I had to walked the streets of Hollywood
Big bayou where did you go To the river that's running slow Into the
Gulf of Mexico Big bayou carry me home
Gotta get away Gotta find a
way Gotta get away home Oh Lord, I'm going home Where the fish jump in
the air You know I don't need a lot of money ‘Cause I ain't going nowhere
Big bayou where did you go To the river that's running slow Into the
Gulf of Mexico Big bayou carry me home
