Cajun Country

On the bayou muddy waters warm
And mosquitoes got a place to swarm
And the gumbo's always hot on the bayou, 
Down in Cajun country

On the bayou you better take your fishing pole 
And if you're thirsty,
I got some Dixie's icy cold
Try some Crawfish Etouffe, Oyster Po'boy,
Down in Cajun country

On the bayou I met Alligator Henri
He was poaching, but that ain't the story he tried to tell me
Born and raised in New Orleans, he's a Creole
Down in Cajun country

On the bayou's only place I feel at home 
And I'll never, never, never feel the need to roam
I'm a Coonass through and through
I don't care none 
Down in Cajun Country
