Lyrics
Now, when I was just a little boy
Standin' to my Daddy's knee
My papa said, "Son, don't let the man get you
An' do what he done to me"
Because he'll get you
'Cause he'll get you now, now
An' I can remember the fourth o' July
Runnin' through the backwood bare
An' I can still hear 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, oh, oh
Wish I was back on the Bayou
Rollin' with some Cajun Queen
Wishin' I were a fast freight train
I'm just a chooglin' on down to New Orlean'
Born on the Bayou
Born on the Bayou, mm, mm, mm
Born on the Bayou
Do it, do it, do it, do it
Oh, Lord
Oh, get back, boy
