Blue Bayou
I feel so bad I 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 til 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 fun
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
Gonna see my baby again
Gonna be with some of my friends
Maybe I'll feel better again
On Blue Bayou
Saving nickels, saving dimes
Working til 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 fun
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
Bridge
Oh, that boy of mine
By my side
The silver moon and the evening tide
Ah, sweet day gonna take away
This hurting inside
Well I'll never be blue
My dreams come true
On Blue Bayou
