Bayou Tortous |
| A Good idea 'til your will is due |
| Is go out to that place on the Tortous Bayou |
| Maybe get lucky, maybe get shot |
| Couldn’t be half the trouble I got |
| Tortous Bayou, turn around |
| Tortous Bayou, turn around |
| It’s just another night with the misses and me |
| Fittin' on the couch watching court T. V |
| Let me tell you something can turn it real |
| If you ever get thinking it’s a done deal |
| Tortous Bayou, Turn around |
| Get your big feet up off the ground |
| Tortous Bayou, turn around |
| Well if that’s a good time, now catch a ride to town |
| She comes from the land of the Bodark tree |
| Scott’s Irish and Cherokee |
| She comes down here when the north blows |
| She don’t care for the ice and snow |
| Tortous Bayou, Turn around |
| Get your big feet up off the ground |
| Tortous Bayou, turn around |
| Well if that’s a good time, now catch a ride to town |
| Take my hand Oklahoma Jane |
| One little mess wouldn’t hurt a thing |
| Now it’s noon, I’m rolling up the drive |
| Now I don’t even got a decent light |
| Letting everybody getting their way sometimes |
| I was looking at every woman that might |
| I was looking at their faces, looking at their parts |
| Looking through the whole in the bottom of my heart |
| Tortous Bayou, turn around |
| Well if that’s a good time, now catch a ride to town |
| Tortous Bayou, turn around |
| Tortous Bayou, turn around |
