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 '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 world is mine
On Blue Bayou
Where those fishing boats
With their sails afoat
If I could onsy see
That familiar sunrise
Through 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
aving 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 world is mine
On Blue Bayou
Where those fishing boats
With their sails afoat
If I could onsy see
That familiar sunrise
Through sleepy eyes
How happy I'd be
Oh, that boy of mine
By my side
The silver moon and the evening tide
Oh, somesweet day
Going to take away
This hurting inside
Well, I'll never be blue
My dreams come true
On Blue Bayou.
