Gonna make a little home, call it our own, and live down on the bayou
With a front-porch hound,lyin’around, and thinkin''bout nothin'I don't know
and hot from the oven Crawfish pie, and neighbors passin’ by
with Cajun music in my ear, life will be just fine
tradin’ it all for blue overalls, faded torn and dirty
something we've been talkin' 'bout, now we got way past thirty
Pullin' out twenty-five pounder catfish, usin’ our bare hands
Somethin' we just gotta do, one day you'll understand
Bayou life beats high-rise livin’ with all it's take and not much givin'
we'll have neighbors round for bayou parties Saturday night
dancin', lovin', laughin', singin' sharin' ev'rything they're bringin'
it's all waitin' there for us, down on the bayou
singin' our Bayou song singin' our Bayou song
singin' our Bayou song singin' our Bayou song
it's all waitin' there for us, down on the bayou
We, heard those tales ‘bout monsters livin' somewhere in the swamps
That Rougarou’s gonna run when my ol’ Bo gets on the job
Been a-huntin' all his life, a legend in his day
he can sniff out them wild boars from least two miles away
Bayou life beats high-rise livin’ with all it's take and not much givin'
we'll have neighbors round for bayou parties Saturday night
dancin', lovin', laughin', singin' sharin' ev'rything they're bringin'
it's all waitin' there for us, down on the bayou
singin' our Bayou song singin' our Bayou song
singin' our Bayou song singin' our Bayou song
it's all waitin' there for us, down on the bayou
