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 nickles, saving dimes
Working til 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 you sleep all day
On the café s splane
On Blue Bayou
On the fishing boats
With their sails afloat
If I could only see
That familiar sunrise
Through sleepy eyes
How happy I'd be
I ought to see my baby again
And to be with some of my friends
Maybe I'll be happy again
On Blue Bayou
I'm going back someday
Gonna stay on Blue Bayou
Where the folks are fun
And the world is mine
On Blue Bayou
Oh that man of mine
By my side
The silver moon a million time
Oh some sweet day
Gonna take away
This hurting inside
Oh that man of mine
By my side
The silver moon a million time
Oh some sweet day
Gonna take away
This hurting inside
I never be blue
My dreams come true
On Blue Bayou
