Bayou Girl

I know a girl named Edie
She’s a good friend of mine
Living on the bayou
On Evangeline
Well she's pretty as a picture
In a magazine
She ‘bout the prettiest little thing
You ever seen

[Verse]
Well I’m back upon muddy water
Down where the big fish go
Running on the banks
In a little pi-reaux
And all day long
What I’m thinking of
Well I’m hoping I can snag me
A little Cajun dove

[Chorus]
She lives down
In a 2 bit town
Where the Palmetto Grows
All around
Anywhere
In the whole damn world
You won’t never find love
Like a bayou girl

[Verse]
Well I’m sitting in a shotgun cabin
Sippin Little Sherry Wine
We sure do have some fun
Sure do have a real good time
Laughing and a singing
I guarantee
To the “adoline”
And the “fiddle dee dee”

[guitar solo]
Someday were gonna get married
She will be my bon ton bride
Many people come
And Watch us stand side by side
Gonna have a little band
Play feux deaux deaux
Etoufee
And a hot gumbo

[Chorus]
She lives down
In a 2 bit town
With a Palmetto Grows
All around
Anywhere
In the God Al mighty World
You won’t never find love
Like a bayou girl
Ain’t nothing the world
Like a bayou girl
