Sittin on a back porch guitar pickin
Little bit of late night whiskey sippin
Crawfish pie, talking finger lickin
Born and raised on the bayou
Washboard rhythm and a bullfrog hummin
Daddy's sweet apple moonshine comin
Babies and the dogs in the back yard runnin
Born and raised on the bayou
How I love my cajun country home
Leave me here and let those good times roll
Talkin bout muddy waters and cypress stumps
Alligators and back wood swamps
Jambalaya for everyone, born and raised on the bayou
Mamas in the kitchen cooking somethin
Everybody else in the back yard buzzin
Dominos, horseshoes, cheating and cussin
Born and raised on the bayou
Zydeco, squeeze box stompin and clappin
Late night moonlight tailgate laughin
Two man pirogue catfish catchin
Born and raised on the bayou
How I love my cajun country home
Leave me here and let those good times roll
Talkin bout hurricanes and hand grenades
Mardi gras and étouffe, laissez le bon ton roulet
Born and raised on the bayou
How I love my cajun country home
How I love my cajun country home
How I love my cajun country home
