The King Of Zydeco |
| Well, it’s a straight line as the crow flies |
| To a heaven here on earth |
| And if you make time, it’s a cool drive |
| Head down to the coast |
| If your taste runs to the gumbo |
| Don’t know where to go? |
| Let me introduce you to the King of Zydeco |
| If your head leaks like a strainer |
| The sea comes to your door |
| A strange sound from the juke-joint |
| A mile just down the road |
| Believe it when you hear it |
| The sound of the rubbing board |
| Let me introduce you to the King of Zydeco |
| Yeahh. |
| Move it over |
| Open up that lane |
| Roll it over |
| Buddy, I’m insane |
| You won’t feel like a stranger |
| You’ve found a second home |
| You can get out of your tree there |
| When that music hits your soul |
| Bye-bye Big Brother |
| 'Cause I’m going away |
| I wanna listen to the man |
| They call Clifton Chenier |
| Feel like a statistic |
| Feeling shrink-wrapped too |
| It’s fun-time baby |
| You’ve been too long in school |
| Head down to the place |
| Near to Thibodaux |
| Let me introduce you to the King of Zydeco |
| Move that semi |
| Buddy, I’m insane |
| It’s now or never |
| I can’t touch the brakes |
| Well, it’s a stone’s throw from the Bayou |
| And I can see the sign |
| Shining like a beacon |
| Right on through the night |
| No more airs and graces |
| Gotta catch the show |
| Let me introduce you to the King of Zydeco |
