Cajun Baby
Hank Williams, Jr.
CHORUS Way down yonder in the Bay-ou country In dear old Louisan’ That’s where lives my Ca-{*} jun Baby The fairest one in the land Her teeth are white and pearly Hair black as coal I wouldn’t trade my Cajun Baby For the world’s gold Way down yonder in the Bay-ou country In dear old Louisan’ My hearts been sad and lonely Sinc the day I left her side But today I got {*} this letter Said she’d be my Cajun bride Gonna go and wed my Cajun Baby And live by the old Bayou Eat a lots of shrimp and crawfish Ride a-} round in my old piroque. CHORUS Before the sun goes down this eve-nin’ 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 Lawd! I got me a Cajun Baby Just livin’ and lovin’ by the old Bay-ou. CHORUS *004232=D/F# note added
