The Cajun Queen

Lyrics

She kinda breezed into town from New Orleans
 And said, "Boys, I'm Big John's Cajun Queen
 Now I didn't come here to argue or waste anybody's time
 I just came to get my man from your dirty old mine
 'Cause he moves me"
 "Now where you give up's where old Queenie's gonna start
 'Cause I got a powerful love in my heart
 So just show me the hole way down in the ground
 And tell the whole wide world Big John's been found
 And he's livin'"
 So down in the mine without a sign of a light
 Old Queenie went a-lookin' for John that night
 She found him there at the bottom of the pit
 And placed a red hot kiss on those cold blue lips
 He started breathin'
 She waited a minute and then she kissed him again
 And old John got the power of a hundred men
 Up he come a-clawin' and a-diggin' like a mole
 And said, "Come on Queenie, we're gonna leave this hole"
 They started walkin'
 Now a roar from the crowd greeted this fine pair
 As they both walked out in that cool night air
 And up for silence went Big John's hand
 And the Queen said, "I told you I'd get my man
 'Cause he moves me"
 You can find them today, they're down in New Orleans
 Big Bad John and his Cajun Queen
 They're a little bit wrinkled from the strain of time
 But their love's just as strong as that night in the mine
 A hundred and ten grandchildren
 Now the moral of this story
 Has a real clear omen
 Don't you ever underestimate
 The power of a woman
