Big Bayou |
| I took a long, long trip to the city |
| I was determined to get somewhere |
| I spent all my hard earned money |
| I had saved to put me there |
| Big bayou where did you go |
| To the river that’s running slow |
| And to the Gulf of Mexico |
| Big bayou carry me home |
| I took a cotton picking job in Memphis |
| And the people there treated me good |
| But my luck run bad in Nashville |
| I had to walked the streets of Hollywood |
| Big bayou where did you go |
| To the river that’s running slow |
| Into the Gulf of Mexico |
| Big bayou carry me home |
| Gotta get away |
| Gotta find a way |
| Gotta get away home |
| Oh Lord I’m going home |
| Where the fish jump in the air |
| You know I don’t need a lot of money |
| Cause I ain’t going nowhere |
| Big bayou where did you go |
| To the river that’s running slow |
| Into the Gulf of Mexico |
| Big bayou carry me home |
| Big bayou carry me home |
| To the river that’s running slow |
| Into the Gulf of Mexico |
| Big bayou where did you go |
| I’m gonna catch a southbound |
| Train home one of these days |
