ricky nelson – down along the bayou country lyrics
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 no 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, remember to 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
