| You feel so good, Lafayette, now I’ve come to greet you
|
| Tell all my friends I’ve come back again
|
| I couldn’t stay away, I was gone only a day
|
| But I’m comin' back to my sweet Lafayette
|
| I’m goin' down to Lafayette, I don’t care how long I’m gone
|
| It’s so hard to leave you, Lafayette, now I know where I belong
|
| When that sweet fiddle sounds and Clifton gets down
|
| That music sounds so good to me, I just might dance until three
|
| And I gotta get back to my sweet Lafayette
|
| Oh, those boys in Lafayette, smilin' so pretty
|
| Those sweet boys in Lafayette, they sure do look good to me We danced all night long to a sweet Cajun song
|
| Drinkin' and jivin' 'til dawn, I could dance on and on Doin' a two-step in my sweet Lafayette
|
| Take me back Lafayette, way down on the bayou
|
| I’m your girl, Lafayette, I’m gonna hang around you
|
| Eat that gumbo and rollin' and tumble
|
| And do crazy things every night, soon I’ll be feelin' alright
|
| When I get back to my sweet Lafayette
|
| When I get back to my sweet Lafayette |
