Hank Williams Jr. Cajun Baby Lyrics

Cajun Baby Lyrics

Way down yonder in the bayou country in dear old Louisianne

That's where lives my Cajun baby, the fairest one in the land

Her teeth're white and pearly hair black as coal

Wouldn't trade my Cajun baby for the world's gold

Way down yonder in the bayou country in dear old Louisianne



My heart's been sad and lonely since the day I left her side

But today I got her letter said she'd be my Cajun bride

Gonna go and wed my Cajun baby and live by the old bayou

Eat a lotsa shrimp and crawfish ride around in my old pirogue



Way down yonder in the bayou country in dear old Louisianne

That's where lives my Cajun baby, the fairest one in the land

Her teeth're white and pearly hair black as coal

Wouldn't trade my Cajun baby for the world's gold

Way down yonder in the bayou country in dear old Louisianne



Before the sun goes down this evening, I'll be on my way

To see my Cajun baby and there I'm gonna stay

On a Saturday night we go dancin' and listen to the fiddle-o

Lord I got me a Cajun baby just a livin' and a lovin' by the old bayou



Way down yonder in the bayou country in dear old Louisianne

That's where lives my Cajun baby, the fairest one in the land

Her teeth're white and pearly hair black as coal

Wouldn't trade my Cajun baby for the world's gold

Way down yonder in the bayou country in dear old Louisianne
