You feel so good, 
Lafayette, now 
I've come to greet you 
Tell all my friends 
I've come back again 
I couldn't stay away, 
I was gone only a day 
But I'm comin' back to my sweet 
Lafayette 
I'm goin' down to 
Lafayette, 
I don't care how long 
I'm gone It's so hard to leave you, 
Lafayette, now 
I know where 
I belong When that sweet fiddle sounds and 
Clifton gets down 
That music sounds so good to me, 
I just might dance until three 
And I gotta get back to my sweet 
Lafayette 
Oh, those boys in 
Lafayette, smilin' so pretty 
Those sweet boys in 
Lafayette, they sure do look good to me 
We danced all night long to a sweet 
Cajun song 
Drinkin' and jivin' 'til dawn, 
I could dance on and on 
Doin' a two-step in my sweet 
Lafayette 
Take me back 
Lafayette, way down on the bayou 
I'm your girl, 
Lafayette, 
I'm gonna hang around you 
Eat that gumbo and rollin' and tumble 
And do crazy things every night, soon 
I'll be feelin' alright 
When I get back to my sweet 
Lafayette 
When I get back to my sweet 
Lafayette
