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

Do it, do it, do it, do it. oh, lord
Oh get back boy

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

All right! do, do, do, do
Mmmmmmm, oh
