Hebert Island
When it's dry I take the road
When the water's high I take a boat
Paradise with fishin' poles
A pair o' dice and dominos
A piece of land a man can find
Peace of mind in a patch of pines
Just inside that Texas line
Livin' on Louisiana time
On Hebert Island, down in Dixie
Jumbalaya and beer and whiskey
City folk, they don't go
'Cause they don't know
How to fais-do-do
Yeah that's for sure
When that storm blows in
We headed for the high land
Up on Hebert Island
Pin-tailed duck wrapped in tin foil
Catfish fryin' in peanut oil
Check the traps for the crawfish boil
Tambourine on the tail of a Labrador
We gon' light the fire, catch a buzz
Talkin' trash just because
No girlfriends to bother us
It's the He-man woman haters club
On Hebert Island, down in Dixie
Jumbalaya and beer and whiskey
City folk, they don't go
'Cause they don't know
How to fais-do-do
Yeah that's for sure
When that storm blows in
We headed for the high land
Up on Hebert Island
Up on Hebert Island (Hebert Island)
Up on Hebert Island (Hebert Island)
Up on Hebert Island (Hebert Island)
Up on Hebert Island (Hebert Island)
Up on Hebert Island (Hebert Island)
Up on Hebert Island (Hebert Island)
Up on Hebert Island
Down in Dixie
Jumbalaya and beer and whiskey
City folk, they don't go
'Cause they don't know
How to fit no dog
Yeah that's for sure
When that storm blows in
We headed for the high land
Up on Hebert Island
When the water's high I take a boat
Paradise with fishin' poles
A pair o' dice and dominos
A piece of land a man can find
Peace of mind in a patch of pines
Just inside that Texas line
Livin' on Louisiana time
On Hebert Island, down in Dixie
Jumbalaya and beer and whiskey
City folk, they don't go
'Cause they don't know
How to fais-do-do
Yeah that's for sure
When that storm blows in
We headed for the high land
Up on Hebert Island
Pin-tailed duck wrapped in tin foil
Catfish fryin' in peanut oil
Check the traps for the crawfish boil
Tambourine on the tail of a Labrador
We gon' light the fire, catch a buzz
Talkin' trash just because
No girlfriends to bother us
It's the He-man woman haters club
On Hebert Island, down in Dixie
Jumbalaya and beer and whiskey
City folk, they don't go
'Cause they don't know
How to fais-do-do
Yeah that's for sure
When that storm blows in
We headed for the high land
Up on Hebert Island
Up on Hebert Island (Hebert Island)
Up on Hebert Island (Hebert Island)
Up on Hebert Island (Hebert Island)
Up on Hebert Island (Hebert Island)
Up on Hebert Island (Hebert Island)
Up on Hebert Island (Hebert Island)
Up on Hebert Island
Down in Dixie
Jumbalaya and beer and whiskey
City folk, they don't go
'Cause they don't know
How to fit no dog
Yeah that's for sure
When that storm blows in
We headed for the high land
Up on Hebert Island
