John Fogerty Born on the Bayou song lyrics

Now, when I just was a little boy

Standin' to my daddy's knee

My poppa said, "Son, don't let the man get you

And do what he done to me"

'Cause I get your law

Did you run down now

Well I can remember the fourth of July

Runnin' through the backwood bare

And I can still hear my old hound dog barkin'

Chasin' down a hoodoo there

Chasin' down a hoodoo there

Born on the Bayou

Born on the Bayou

Born on the Bayou

Well wish I was back on the Bayou

Rollin' with some Cajun Queen

Wishin' I was a fast freight train

Just a chooglin' on down to New Orleans

Born on the Bayou

Born on the Bayou

Born on the Bayou
