In the bayou
There’ll be hell to pay
I will guide you
If you lose your way
In the bayou
Let’s hope the levee stays
Or there’ll be hell to pay
Then we’ll be on our way
Back to the bayou yea
In the bayou
If the levee breaks
You’ll have to gather
Here we go -Here we go
At the rivers edge
You’ll shake and shiver
Here we go - Here we go -Back to the bayou
In the bayou
There’ll be hell to pay
I will find you
Thoughts on you they stay
In the bayou
Let’s hope the levee stays
Or there’ll be hell to pay
Then we’ll be on our way
Back to the bayou
If the levee breaks
We’ll all be crying
If the levee stays
We’ll all be fine
If the levee breaks
We’ll have no time
If the levee stays
we’ll all be fine -Back at the bayou yea
Lord let the levee stay
And rains pass away
And Ill find another way – back to the bayou
