Born on the Bayou

One, two, three, four

Oh, yeah

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"

Born on the bayou
Born on the bayou
Born on the bayou
Do it, do it, get it now
Do it now, oh yeah

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

Oh, I was born on the bayou
Yes, I was born on the bayou
I was born on the bayou
Get it, get it, do it now
Get it now, ooh, gotta get it

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 Orleans

Oh, I was born on the bayou
I was born on the bayou
I was born on the bayou
Get it, get it, do it now
Get it now, oh, feels good

Oh, yeah
What you gonna do now?
Take me one more time, oh

I wish I were back on the bayou
Rollin' with some fine steakin'
I wish I were a fast freight train
Just me chooglin' on down to New Orleans

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
