Blue Bayou

I feel so bad, I've got a worried mind

I'm so lonesome all the time

And since I left my baby behind

Oh, Blue Bayou (Blue Bayou)

Saving nickels, saving dimes

Working till the sun don't shine

Looking forward to happier times

Oh, Blue Bayou (Blue Bayou)

I'm going back someday

Come with me to Blue Bayou

Where the folks are fine and the world is mine

Oh, Blue Bayou

Where those fishing boats with their sails afloat

If I could only see

That familiar sun rise through sleepy eyes

How happy I'd be

Gonna see my baby again

Gonna be with some of my friends

Maybe I'll be better again

Oh, Blue Bayou (Blue Bayou)

Been saving nickels, saving dimes

Working till the sun don't shine

Looking forward to happier times

Oh, Blue Bayou (Blue Bayou)

I'm going back someday

Come with me to Blue Bayou

Where the folks are fine and the world is mine

Oh, Blue Bayou

Where those fishing boats with their sails afloat

If I could only see

That familiar sun rise through sleepy eyes

How happy I'd be

I wanna be back with me lady

Back with me one

Back with me woman, yeah, back with me love

Hold her so close, suffocate her

Anything she want, I'll cater

And I promise to never leave her side

While she vows to be my wife

And that's why I can't wait to get

Back to my baby

I'm going back someday

Come with me to Blue Bayou

Where the folks are fine and the world is mine

Oh, Blue Bayou

Where those fishing boats with their sails afloat

If I could only see

That familiar sun rise through sleepy eyes

How happy I'd be
