Cajun Baby

Way down yonder in the bayou country in dear old Louisianne That's where lives my Cajun baby, the fairest one in the land Her teeth're white and pearly hair black as coal Wouldn't trade my Cajun baby for the world's gold Way down yonder in the bayou country in dear old Louisianne My heart's been sad and lonely since the day I left her side But today I got her letter said she'd be my Cajun bride Gonna go and wed my Cajun baby and live by the old bayou Eat a lotsa shrimp and crawfish ride around in my old pirogue Way down yonder in the bayou country in dear old Louisianne That's where lives my Cajun baby, the fairest one in the land Her teeth're white and pearly hair black as coal Wouldn't trade my Cajun baby for the world's gold Way down yonder in the bayou country in dear old Louisianne Before the sun goes down this evening, I'll be on my way To see my Cajun baby and there I'm gonna stay On a Saturday night we go dancin' and listen to the fiddle-o Lord I got me a Cajun baby just a livin' and a lovin' by the old bayou Way down yonder in the bayou country in dear old Louisianne That's where lives my Cajun baby, the fairest one in the land Her teeth're white and pearly hair black as coal Wouldn't trade my Cajun baby for the world's gold Way down yonder in the bayou country in dear old Louisianne
