terry allen & the panhandle mystery band - cajun roll lyrics
[verse 1]
like a cajun river rolling, i been rolling down the line
knocking on them old backdoors with the cornbread on my mind
like a lonely water inlet, i sought safety in the trees
but that cajun river rolling, she’s a water moving me
[chorus]
a cajun roll (cajun roll) and a cajun tide (cajun tide)
are moving me (moving me) down deep inside
a cajun roll (cajun roll), yeah, from deep within (deep within)
like a waterfall to the gulfs of sin, oh, oh
[verse 2]
like a moonbeam on the bayou, dark+eyed creoles paint their skin
on the gambling boats of pleasure that floats around the bend
and i know because i been there, lord, it ain’t no place to stay
like that cajun river rolling, it runs downhill all the way
[chorus]
a cajun roll (cajun roll) and a cajun tide (cajun tide)
are moving me (moving me) down deep inside
a cajun roll (cajun roll), yeah, from deep within (deep within)
like a waterfall to the gulfs of sin, oh, oh
[verse 3]
like a scene from some old bible, i seen people on their knees
with a soul that’s full of sinning and a mouth that’s full of please
and i realize the sadness, lord, of a man who just can’t win
like that cajun river rolling, he runs crooked ’til the end
[chorus]
a cajun roll (cajun roll) and a cajun tide (cajun tide)
are moving me (moving me) down deep inside
a cajun roll (cajun roll), yeah, from deep within (deep within)
like a waterfall to the gulfs of sin
[outro]
