Born On The Bayou
Creedence Clearwater Revival
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
Because 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
Wish I was back on the Bayou
Rollin' with some Cajun Queen
Wishin' I were a fast freight train
Just a chooglin' on down to New Orleans
Born on the Bayou
Born on the Bayou
Born on the Bayou
(Do it, do it, do it, do it, oh, Lord)
(Oh, get back boy)
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
All right! (Do, do, do, do)
(Mmmmmmm, ohh)
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
All right! (Do, do, do, do)
(Mmmmmmm, ohh)
