[Intro]
One, two, three, four
Oh, yeah
[Verse 1]
Once I was just a little girl
When I was sittin' on my mama's knee
My mama said, "Betty, don't let the man get ya
Do what it done to me
Huh, don't let him get ya now"
[Chorus]
Born on the bayou
Born on the bayou
Born on the bayou
Do it, do it, get it now
Do it now, oh yeah
[Verse 2]
I can remember the Fourth of July
Runnin' down the backwood trail
I can still hear my old hound dog barkin'
Chasin' down a hoodoo there
[Chorus]
Oh, I was born on the bayou
Yes, I was born on the bayou
I was born on the bayou
Get it, get it, doit now
Get it now, ooh, gotta get it
[Refrain]
I wish I were back on the bayou
Rollin' with some fine steakin'
I wish I was a fast freight train
Just a-chooglin' on down to New Orlеans
[Chorus]
Oh, I was born on the bayou
I was born on the bayou
I was born on the bayou
Gеt it, get it, do it now
Get it now, oh, feels good
[Bridge]
Oh, yeah
What you gonna do now?
Take me one more time, oh
[Refrain]
I wish I were back on the bayou
Rollin' with some fine steakin'
I wish I was a fast freight train
Just me chooglin' on down to New Orleans
[Chorus]
Oh, I was born on the bayou
Yes, I was born on the bayou
I was born on the bayou
Do it now, yes
Oh, oh
I was born on the bayou
Yeah, I was born on the bayou
I was born on the bayou
Get it, get it, do it now
Have to, mmm-mmm-mmm
I was born on the bayou
Yes, I was born on the bayou
I was born on the bayou
Got to know, ooh
Aw, I was born on the bayou
Aw, I was born on the bayou
I was born on the bayou
Oh, do it
