[Verse 1] Now, when I was just a little boy Standing to my Daddy's knee My poppa said, Son, don't let the man get you Do what he done to me Because he'll get you Because he'll get you now, now [Chorus 1] And I can remember the fourth of July Runnin' through the backwood, bare And I can still hear my old hound dog barking Chasing down a hoodoo there[x2] [Chorus 2] Down on the Bayou[x3] [Verse 2] Wish I was back on the Bayou Rolling with some Cajun Queen Wishing I were a fast freight train Just a choogling on down to New Orleans [Chorus 2] [Bridge] Do it, do it, do it, do it, Oh, Lord Oh get back boy [Chorus 1] [Chorus 2] [Outro] All right! Do, do, do, do Mmmm, oh
