I feel so bad I've got a worried mind |
|
I'm so lonesome all the time |
|
Since I left my baby behind on Blue Bayou |
|
Savin' nickels, savin' dimes |
|
Workin' till the sun don't shine |
|
Lookin' forward to happier times on Blue Bayou |
|
I'm goin' back some day, come what may, to Blue Bayou |
|
Where you sleep all day and the catfish play on Blue Bayou |
|
All those fishin' boats with their sails afloat, if I could only see |
|
That familiar sunrise through sleepy eyes how happy I'd be |
|
Oh, to see my baby again |
|
And to be with some of my friends |
|
Maybe I'd be happy then on Blue Bayou |
|
I'm goin' back some day, gonna stay on Blue Bayou |
|
Where the folks are fine and the world is mine on Blue Bayou |
|
Ah, that girl of mine by my side, the silver moon and the evening tide |
|
Ah, some sweet day gonna take away this hurtin' inside |
|
I'll never be blue, my dreams come true |
|
On Blue Bayou |
