[Verse 1]
I feel so bad, I got a worried mind
I'm so lonesome all the time
Since I left my baby behind
On Blue Bayou
Savin' nickels, savin' dimes
Workin' 'til the sun don't shine
Lookin' forward to happier times
On Blue Bayou
[Chorus]
I'm goin' back someday, come what may
To Blue Bayou
Where the folks are fine and the world is mine
On Blue Bayou
Where those fishin' boats with their sails afloat
If I could only see
That familiar sunrise through sleepy eyes
How happy I'd be
[Verse 2]
Gonna see my baby again
Gonna be with some of my friends
Maybe I'll feel better again
On Blue Bayou
Savin' nickеls, savin' dimes (Savin' dimes)
Workin' 'til the sun don't shinе
Lookin' forward to happier times
On Blue Bayou
[Chorus]
I'm goin' back someday, come what may
To Blue Bayou
Where the folks are fine and the world is mine
On Blue Bayou
Where those fishin' boats with their sails afloat
If I could only see
That familiar sunrise through sleepy eyes
How happy I'd be
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
Oh, that boy of mine by my side
The silver moon and the evenin' tide
Oh, some sweet day, gonna take away
The hurtin' inside
Well, I'll never be blue, my dreams come true
On Blue Bayou
