Born On The Bayou

[Verse 1]
Now when I was just a little boy
Standing to my daddy's knee
My papa said son don’t let the man get you do what he done to me
Cause it’ll get ya
Cause it’ll get you now
I can remember the fourth of July running through the backwood bare
I can still hear old hound dogs barkin' chasing down a hoodoo there
Chasing down a hoodoo there

[Chorus]
Born on the bayou
Born on the bayou
Born on the bayou
Yeah born out there

[Verse 2]
Well I wish I was back on the bayou
Rolling with some cajun queen
Wishin' I were a freight train no just a chooglin' on down to New Orleans

[Chorus]
Born on the bayou
Born on the bayou
Born on the bayou
Yeah yeah

[Outro]
Running through the backwood bell
I could still hear my chihuahua barking chasing down that who do there
Chasing down the who do there
Born on the bayou
Born on the bayou
Born on the bayou
Yeah everyone that’s where I’m from and what I said
