Shadow On the Old Bayou |
| Strolling in the evening when the moon’s hanging low |
| Just walking talking, baby, 'cause I miss you so |
| With twilight kisses this evening, too |
| I miss you, baby, in the shadows of the old bayou |
| My thoughts keep a-haunting the memories of you |
| Can’t eat, sleep, don’t know what I’m to do |
| My heart keeps a-calling, calling for you |
| I need you, baby, in the shadows of the old bayou |
| Now when shadows fall on the bayou |
| And whippoorwills call through the night |
| The perfume of the sweet magnolia |
| When I’m holding you, oh so tight |
| I’m just a-dreaming and a-scheming, just a-planning, my dear |
| Just thinking, wishing darling, you were here |
| For my heart it misses, it misses sweet you |
| I am so lonesome in the shadows of the old bayou |
| Now when shadows fall on the bayou |
| And whippoorwills call through the night |
| The perfume of the sweet magnolia |
| When I’m holding you, oh so tight |
| I’m just a-dreaming and a-scheming, just a-planning, my dear |
| Just thinking, wishing darling, you were here |
| For my heart it misses, it misses sweet you |
| I am so lonesome in the shadows of the old bayou |
