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 nickles, 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 you sleep all day And the catfish play On Blue Bayou All 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 I wanna be with some of my friends Maybe I'd be happy then On Blue Bayou Saving nickles 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 fun And the world is mine On Blue Bayou And that man of mine By my side The silver moon and the evening tide Some sweet day Gonna take away that hurting inside I'll never be blue My dreams come true On Blue Bayou On Blue Bayou
