Blue Bayou

I feel so bad
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 fine
And the world is mine on Blue Bayou

Where the 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
Lookin' forward to happier times on Blue Bayou

I'm going back some day
Come what may to 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 through sleepy eyes
How happy I'd be

That man of mine by my side
To see the moon and the evening tide
Oh, I'll never be blue
My dreams come true on Blue Bayou
