Where the folks are fine
My dreams come true
And the world is mine on Blue Bayou
Saving nickels, saving dimes
This hurting inside
And the world is mine on Blue Bayou
Gonna be with some of my friends
Where those fishing boats with their sails afloat
Looking forward to happier times
If I could only see
Well I'll never be blue
Come what may to Blue Bayou
On Blue Bayou
Saving nickels, saving dimes
Looking forward to happier times
I'm going back someday
The silver moon and the evening tide
On Blue Bayou
Oh that boy of mine by my side
Gonna see my baby again
Maybe I'll feel better again
I'm going back someday
Come what may to Blue Bayou
Working til the sun don't shine
If I could only see
That familiar sunrise through sleepy eyes
How happy I'd be
Since I left my baby behind
How happy I'd be
Oh some sweet day gonna take away
That familiar sunrise through sleepy eyes
Where those fishing boats with their sails afloat
On Blue Bayou
On Blue Bayou
Where the folks are fine
Working till the sun don't shine
