Blue Bayou

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
Saving nickels saving dimes working

till the sun don't shine
Looking forward to happier times on Blue Bayou

※ I'm going back some day

   come what may to Blue Bayou
   Where the folks are fine
 
      and the world is mine on Blue Bayou
   Where those fishing boats with their sails
 
      afloat if I could only see
   That familiar sunrise through sleepy eyes

      how happy I'd be
 Go to see my baby again

  gonna be with some of my friends
 Maybe I feel better then on Blue Bayou
 Saving nickels saving dimes
 
  working till the sun don't shine
 Looking forward to happier times on Blue Bayou

I'm going back some day gonna stay on Blue Bayou...
  [ steel ]

  Oh the boy of mine by my side
 
  the silver moon and the evening tide
  Oh some sweet day gonna take away

    this hurtin' inside
  And I'll never be blue my dreams come true

    on Blue Bayou
