I feel so bad, I got a worried mind,
I´m so lonesome all the time,
since I left my baby behind, on Blue Bayou.
Savin´ nickels, savin´ dimes,
work until the sun don´t shine,
lookin´ forward to happier times, on Blue Bayou.
I´m goin´ back some day,
come what may, to Blue Bayou,
where the folks are fine,
and the world is mine, on Blue Bayou;
where there's fishing boats,
with their sails, afloat,
if I could only see,
that familiar sunrise, two sleepy eyes,
how happy I´d be.
Wanna see my baby again,
wanna be with some of my friends,
maybe I´ll feel better again on Blue Bayou
Savin´ nickels ...
I´m goin´ back someday,
come what may to Blue Bayou,
where the folks are fine,
and the world is mine, on Blue Bayou;
where there's fishing boats,
with their sails afloat,
if I could only see,
that familiar sunrise, two sleepy eyes,
how happy I´ll be
With that boy of mine
by my side,
the silver moon in the evenin´ tide,
oh, some sweet day...
s'gonna take away this hurtin´ inside.
Well, I´ll never be blue;
my dreams come true
on Blue Ba-you.
