Lyrics Little Richard – Born On The Bayou

Now, when I was just a little boy,
Standin’ to my Daddy’s knee,
My poppa said, «Son, don’t let the man get you
Do what he done to me.»

Chorus:
Down on the Bayou;
Down on the Bayou;
Down on the Bayou.

Wish I was back on the Bayou.
Rollin’ with some Cajun Queen.
Wishin’ I were a fast freight train,
Just a chooglin’ on down to New Orleans.

Chorus

Do it, do it, do it, do it. Oh, Lord.
Oh get back boy.

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.

Chorus

All right! Do, do, do, do.
Mmmmmmm, oh.
