Paroles de Down Along The Bayou Country

It was down along the Bayou country Down around New Orleans You took my hand you said your my man we'll have a good life you and me It was down along the Bayou country Down in the Cajun land Momma said son "you know before you're done you're gonna wind up with a gun in your hand" Then I heard that train whistle moanin It was rolling on down the line I got thoughts to straighten out places to know about I'll be home in good time Then I hopped a train down in Lockport I headed cross Hattiesburg I think I knew then I wouldn't see you again Goodbye, was the last thing I heard Then I met a man up in Greenville he said he'd give me some real good advice he said you gotta get smart I did "Here take this gun and kid never, never look twice" Now living to me has meant heartache Life was always something to use as I look back again I never could win I guess I was put down here to lose Now I'm alone and locked in Montgomery you see I robbed a bank and shot a man their gonna hang me tomorrow I wish I could borrow my life to live over again
