Blue Bayou

I feel so bad, I've got a worried mind. I'm so lonesome all the time.

Since I left my baby behind, I'm blue by you.

Saving nickels, saving dimes. Working till the sun don't shine.

Looking forward to happier times on Blue Bayou

I'm going back someday, 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

Gonna see my baby again

Gonna be with some of my friends

Maybe I'll feel better again, I'm blue by you.

Saving nickels, saving dimes, working 'til the sun don't shine.

Looking forward to happier times, I'm blue by you.

I'm going back someday, come what may, to Blue Bayou

Where the folks are fun 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

Oh, that boy of mine, by my side, the silver moon and the evening tide

Oh, some sweet day gonna take away this hurt inside

Well, I'll never be blue, my dreams come true, I'm blue by you.
