Cajun Country

On the bayou muddy water's warm 
And mosquitoes got a place to swarm. 
And the gumbo's always hot on the bayou, 
Down in Cajun country. 

On the bayou you better take your fishing pole 
And if you're thirsty,
I got some Dixie's icy cold. 
Try some Crawfish Etouffe, Oyster Po'boy, 
Down in Cajun country. 

On the bayou I met Alligator Henri. 
He was poaching, but that ain't the story he tried to tell me. 
Born and raised in New Orleans, he's a Creole
Down in Cajun country. 

On the bayou's only place I feel at home 
And I'll never, never, never feel the need to roam.
I'm a Coonass through and through
I don't care none 
Down in Cajun Country.
