Born On The Bayou

Creedence Clearwater Revival


(INTRO)
Now, when I was just a little boy,
Standin' to my daddy's knee
My poppa said, 
"Son, don't let the man get you and do what he done to me."
"And he'll get you.  Don't let hime get you now."

I can remember the fourth of July,
Runnin' through the backwood bare.
And I can still hear my old hound dog barkin',
Chasin' down a hoodoo there
Chasin' down a hoodoo there

(CHORUS)
Born on the Bayou
Born on the Bayou
Born on the Bayou

Wish I was Back on the Bayou
Rollin' with some Cajun Queen
Wishin' I were a fast freight train,
Just a chooglin' on down to New Orleans

(CHORUS)
