Down Along The Bayou Country

歌曲歌詞

It was down along the bayou country

Down around New Orleans

You took my hand you said your my man

We'll have a good life you and me

It was down along the bayou country

Down in the Cajun land

Momma said son you know before you're done

You're gonna wind up with a gun in your hand

Then I heard that train whistle moanin'

It was rolling on down the line

I got thoughts to straighten out

Places to know about

I'll be home in no time

Then I hopped a train down in Lockport

I headed 'cross Hattiesburg

I think I knew then I wouldn't see you again

Goodbye was the last thing I heard

Then I met a man up in Greenville

He said he'd give me some real good advice

He said you gotta get smart I did

Here take this gun and kid remember to never look twice

Now living to me has meant heartache

Life was always something to use

As I look back again I never could win

I guess I was put down here to lose

Now I'm alone and locked in Montgomery

You see I robbed a bank and shot a man

Their gonna hang me tomorrow
