I feel so bad I've got a word in mind,
I'm so lonesome all the time
Since I've left my baby behind on Blue Bayou.
Saving nickels, saving dimes,
Working 'till the sun don't shine
Looking forward happy times on Blue Bayou
Chorus:
I'm going back someday,... to Blue Bayou!
Where we sleep all day and the coffee is... Blue Bayou!
Where the... if I could only see,
That familiar sunrise, sleeping eyes, how happy I would be!
Go to see my baby again,
And to go out with some of my friends,
Maybe I'll be happy again on Blue Bayou!
Chorus:
I'm going back someday, I'm gonna stay on Blue Bayou!
Where the folks are fine and world is mine, on Blue Bayou!
Oh that girl of mine, by my side, the silver moon and... times
Oh, so sweet taste, I'mma take her away...
I'm going back someday on Blue Bayou!
Where the folks are fine on Blue Bayou!
Oh the girl of mine, by my side, the silver moon and... times
Oh, so sweet taste, I'mma take her away that hurt these eyes.
