Ed Bruce - Blue Bayou lyrics

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

Since I left my baby behind on Blue Bayou

Saving nickels and saving dimes working till the sun don't shine

Looking forward to happier times on Blue Bayou

I'm going back some day come what may to Blue Bayou

Where you sleep all day and the catfish play on Blue Bayou

Where the fishing boats with their sails afloat if I could only see

That familiar sunrise through sleepy eyes how happy I'd be

[ trumpet ]

Go to see my baby again wanna be with some of my friends

Maybe I feel better then on Blue Bayou

I'm going back some day gonna stay on Blue Bayou

Where the folks are fine and the world is mine on Blue Bayou

With the girl of mine by my side till the silvery moon and the evening dies

Some sweet day gonna take away this hurtin' inside
