Verse 1:
I feel so bad I've gotta worried mind
I'm so lonesome all the time
Since I've left my baby behind on Blue Bayou(Blue Bayou)
Saving nickels, saving dimes, working till the sun dont shine
Looking forward to happier times on Blue Bayou
Chorus:
I'm going back someday, come with me on Blue Bayou
Where the folks are fine and the world is mine on Blue Bayou
Where those fishing boats with their sails afloats, if I could only see
That familiar sunrise from sleepy eyes, how happy I'd be
Verse 2:
Gonna see my baby again
Gonna be with some of my friends(some of my friends)
Maybe I'll be better again on Blue Bayou
Saving nickels, saving dimes, working till the sun dont shine
Looking forward to happier times on Blue Bayou
Chorus:
I'm going back someday, come with me on Blue Bayou
Where the folks are fine and the world is mine on Blue Bayou
Where those fishing boats with their sails afloats, if I could only see
That familiar sunrise from sleepy eyes, how happy I'd be
Verse 3:
(Yayah)
I wanna be back with me lady, back with me one
Back with me woman, oh back with me love
Hold her close suffocate her, anything she wants I'll cater
And I'll promise to never leave her side
While she vows to be my wife
Thats why, I can't wantt to get back to my lady
Chorus:
I'm going back someday, come with me on Blue Bayou
Where the folks are fine, and the world is mine on Blue Bayou
Where those fishing boats with their sails afloat if I could only see
That familiar sunrise from sleepy eyes, how happy I'd be
