"Bayou Woman" lyrics

Bayou Woman

Bayou
Bayou woman
Soon I'm coming
Home to you
My bayou baby
Sweet causian lady
It won't be long till
My arms hold you

I can see the new moon
Creeping through the bayou
And slipping through the window
Shining down for my lady dreams

And you know the new moon
Is gonna be full soon
And I'll be by you
My bayou queen
Woman

Bayou
Bayou woman
Soon I'm coming
Home to you
My bayou baby
Sweet causian lady
It won't be long till
These arms hold you

And I can hear the night bird
Singing through the ciphers
My sweet lullaby to
All my lady's dreams
And you know that my song
As I been gone too long
Too long from the bayou
And my bayou queen
