Lyrics
Cajun Country
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
On the bayou muddy water's warm
And mosquitoes got a place to swarm.
And the gumbo's always hot on the bayou,
Down in Cajun country.
On the bayou you better take your fishing pole
And if you're thirsty,
I got some Dixie's icy cold.
Try some Crawfish Etouffe, Oyster Po'boy,
Down in Cajun country.
On the bayou I met Alligator Henri.
He was poaching, but that ain't the story he tried to tell me.
Born and raised in New Orleans, he's a Creole
Down in Cajun country.
On the bayou's only place I feel at home
And I'll never, never, never feel the need to roam.
I'm a Coonass through and through
I don't care none
Down in Cajun Country.
