Creedence Clearwater Revisited - Born On The Bayou lyrics

rate me

Now when I was just a little boy<br />

Standin' to my Daddy's knee<br />

My poppa said, "Son, don't let the man get you<br />

Do what he done to me"<br />

'Cause he'll get you 'cause he'll get you now, now<br />

<br />

And I can remember the fourth of July<br />

Runnin' through the backwood, bare<br />

And I can still hear my old hound dog barkin'<br />

Chasin' down a hoodoo there<br />

Chasin' down a hoodoo there<br />

<br />

Born on the bayou<br />

Born on the bayou<br />

Born on the bayou<br />

<br />

Wish, I was back on the bayou<br />

Rollin' with some Cajun Queen<br />

Wishin' I were a fast freight train<br />

Just a chooglin' on down to New Orleans<br />

<br />

Born on the bayou<br />

Born on the bayou<br />

Born on the bayou<br />

<br />

Do it, do it, do it, do it, oh, Lord<br />

Oh, get back, boy<br />

<br />

I can remember the fourth of July<br />

Runnin' through the backwood bare<br />

And I can still hear my old hound dog barkin'<br />

Chasin' down a hoodoo there<br />

Chasin' down a hoodoo there<br />

<br />

Born on the bayou<br />

Born on the bayou<br />

Born on the bayou<br />

<br />

Alright, do, do, do, do, oh
