Evangeline - Bayou Boy lyrics

Way down deep in the Lousianna swamp where the sun don't ever shine There's a long-haired boy fishing on the bayou he's got my heart on the line He's got coal black hair eyes blue as a soft shell a red hot cajun heart And you know tonight he'll be headin' my way and he won't be afraid of the dark Who's that walking through the swamp tonight Slipping by the gators in the pale moonlight Coming my way to make me feel just right It's my bayou boy bayou boy The days are long as a shrimpboat's trawl and they drag into the night The nights are warm as the Delta sun and as free as a Yankee dime And I'm just sittin' with my rat-tail fan in the land of the cajun moon Waitin' for a sign that he made a catch and he'll be coming home real soon Who's that walking through the swamp tonight Slipping by the gators in the pale moonlight Coming my way to make me feel just right It's my bayou boy [ piano fiddle ] Who's that walking through the swamp tonight Slipping by the gators in the pale moonlight Coming my way to make me feel just right Way down deep in the Lousiana swamp where the sun don't ever shine There's a long-haired boy fishing on the bayou someday's he's gonna be mine With his coal black hair eyes blue as a soft shell his red hot cajun heart And you know tonight he'll be headin' my way and he won't be afraid of the dark Who's that walking through the swamp tonight... It's my bayou boy bayou boy bayou boy
