VERSE 1:
I feel so bad I’ve got a worried mind
I’m so lonesome all the time
Since I left my baby behind on Blue Bayou

VERSE 2:
Saving nickles, saving dimes
Workin til the sun don’t shine
Looking forward to happier times on Blue Bayou

CHORUS A:
I’m goin back someday, come what may to Blue Bayou
Where you sleep all day and the catfish play on Blue Bayou
All those fishing boats with their sails afloat
If I could only see
That familiar sunrise through sleepy eyes how happy I’d be

VERSE 3:
Oh, to see my baby again
And to be with some of my friends
Maybe I’d be happy then on Blue Bayou

CHORUS B:
I’m goin back someday, gonna stay on Blue Bayou
Where the folks are fine and the world is mine on Blue Bayou
Oh, that girl of mine by my side
Silver moon and the evening tide
Some sweet day, gonna take away this hurtin inside

OUTRO:
I’ll never be blue, my dreams come true -
On Blue - Ba - you
