Lyrics The Byrds – Lover Of The Bayou

Catfish pie in gris gris bag
I’m the lover of the bayou
Mark your doorstep with a half wet rag
I’m the lover of the bayou

Raised and swam with the crocodile
Snake-Eye taught me the Mojo style
Sucked and weened on chicken bile
I’m the lover of the bayou

I learned the key to the master lock
I learned to float in the water clock
Learned to capture the lightning shock
I’m the lover of the bayou

And I got cats an’ teeth and hair for sale
I’m the lover of the bayou
There are zombies on your tail
I’m the lover of the bayou

I cooked the bat in the gumbo pan
I drank the blood from a rusty can
Turned me into the Hunger Man
I’m the lover of the bayou
