I feel bad, I got a worried mind
I'm so lonesome all of the time
Since I left my baby behind... on Blue Bayou
Saving nickels, saving dimes
Working till the sun don't shine
Looking forward to the happier times on Blue Bayou
I'm going back some day, come what may to Blue Bayou
Where the folks are fine, and world is mine on Blue Bayou
Where those fishing boats, with sails afloat, if I could only see
That familiar sunrise through sleepy eyes how happy I'd be
Going to see my baby again
Going to be with some of my friends
Maybe I'll feel better again on Blue Bayou
Saving nickels, saving dimes
Working till the sun don't shine
Looking forward to the happier times on Blue Bayou
Refrein
Solo
Oh that boy of mine by my side, the silver moon and the evening tide
Oh somesweet day, going to take away this hurting inside
Well, I never be blue, my dreams came true on Blue Bayou
