Born on the Bayou

When I was just a little boy
Standing to my daddy's knee
My papa said, son, don't let the man get you
And do what he done to me
'Cause he'll get ya
'Cause he'll get ya, now

Well, I can remember the Fourth of July
Runnin' through the backwood bare
And I can still see my ol' hound dog barkin'
Chasin' down a hoodoo there
Chasin' down a hoodoo there

Born on the bayou
Born on the bayou
Born on the bayou

Wish I was back on the bayou
Rolling with some cajun queen
Wishin' I was a fast freight train
A-just a-chooglin' on down to New Orleans

Born on the bayou
Born on the bayou
Born on the bayou
Do, do, yeah

Well, I can remember the Fourth of July
Runnin' through the backwood bare
And I can still see my ol' hound dog barkin'
Chasin' down a hoodoo there
Chasin' down a hoodoo there

Born on the bayou
Born on the bayou
Born on the bayou
Hey, yeah, yeah
