Do, do, do, do, do
Wish I was back on the Bayou
My Poppa said, "Son, don't let the man get you
Born on the Bayou
And I can still hear my old hound dog barkin'
Born on the Bayou
Oh get back boy
Rollin' with some Cajun Queen
'Cause he'll get you now, now
Born on the Bayou
Do what he done to me"
Runnin' through the backwood bare
Born on the Bayou
Just a chooglin' on down to New Orleans
And I can remember the fourth of July
Wishin' I were a fast freight train
Born on the Bayou
Do it, do it, do it, do it
Chasin' down a hoodoo there
And I can remember the fourth of July
Born on the Bayou
Runnin' through the backwood bare
Born on the Bayou
Chasin' down a hoodoo there
Chasin' down a hoodoo there
'Cause he'll get you
All right
Oh, Lord
Chasin' down a hoodoo there
Born on the Bayou
Born on the Bayou
And I can still hear my old hound dog barkin'
