| Lyrics: | (John Fogerty)
Now, when I just was a little boy,
standin to my Daddy's knee,
my poppa
said "Son, don't let the man get you
and do what he done to me."
I can remember
the fourth of July,
runnin' through the backwood bare.
And I can still hear my old hound dog
barkin',
chasin' down a hoodoo there,
chasin' down a hoodoo there.
Born on the
Bayou
Born on the Bayou
Born on the Bayou
Wish I was back on the Bayou,
rollin'
with some Cajun Queen.
Wishin' I where a fast freight train,
just a chooglin' on down to New
Orleans.
Born on the Bayou
Born on the Bayou
Born on the Bayou
I can remember
the fourth of July,
runnin' through the backwood bare.
And I can still hear my old hound dog
barkin',
chasin' down a hoodoo there,
chasin' down a hoodoo there.
Born on the
Bayou
Born on the Bayou
Born on the Bayou |
