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 'till the sun dont't shineLooking forward to happyend times on blue bayou


I'm going back somet day come what made to blue bayou
Where the folks are fine and the world is mine on blue bayou
Where thoose fishing boats with their sails afloat
If I could only see
That familiar sunrise trough sleepy eyes
How happy I'd be

Going to see my baby again going to be with some of my friends
Maybe I'll feel better again On blue bayou

Saving nickels saving dimes working 'till the sun dont't shineLooking forward to happyend times on blue bayou

Refrain

Solo

Oh that boy of mine -- by my side
The silver moon and the evening tide
Oh some sweet day going to take away
This hurting inside
Well I'll never be blue my dreams come true
On blue bayou
