Louisiana Bayou
Lyrics
No, no, mamma now devil done do-si-do Two young boys lyin' dead by the side of the road The coins in their eyes represent the money they owed No judge or jury ever gonna hear their story told Down by the Bayou Tryin' to play with the 'caine Tryin' to play with the 'caine Same old story again Down by the Bayou (Louisiana Bayou) Tryin' to play with the 'caine Tryin' to play with the 'caine Same old story again Louisiana Bayou ♪ Sweet girl, daddy done beat that girl like he's insane Brother can't watch him beat that girl down again 'Til late one night cooking up with a couple of friends Swears his daddy never gonna see another day Down by the Bayou Tryin' to play with the 'caine Tryin' to play with the 'caine Same old story again Down by the Bayou (Louisiana Bayou) Tryin' to play with the 'caine Tryin' to play with the 'caine Same old story again Louisiana Bayou No, no, mamma now devil done do-si-do Two young boys lyin' dead by the side of the road Shame, shame Oh, it's a shame to lose your way running wild It's a shame to lose the light that shines (shame, shame) It's a shame to lose your way as a child It's a shame to lose your Money on the bed, but you ain't got to go Sold your soul just tryin' to get overload No empty pocket gonna keep you from gettin' yours No judge or jury ever gonna hear their story told Down by the Bayou Tryin' to play with the 'caine Tryin' to play with the 'caine Same old story again Down by the Bayou (Louisiana Bayou) Tryin' to play with the 'caine Tryin' to play with the 'caine Same old story again Louisiana Bayou No, no, mamma now devil done do-si-do Them, them two young boys lyin' dead by the side of the road Down by the Bayou Tryin' to play with the 'caine Tryin' to play with the 'caine Same old story again Down by the Bayou (Louisiana Bayou) Tryin' to play with the 'caine Tryin' to play with the 'caine Same old story again Louisiana Bayou Tryin' to play with the 'caine Tryin' to play with the 'caine Same old story again Down by the Bayou (Louisiana Bayou) Tryin' to play with the 'caine Tryin' to play with the 'caine Same old story again Down by the Bayou Tryin' to play with the 'caine Oh, it's a shame to lose your way running wild It's a shame to lose the light that shines on you It's a shame to lose your way as a child It's a shame to lose your Down by the Bayou Hold by, hold down You call and it's open, it's open Louisiana Bayou ♪ Louisiana Bayou
