Blue Bayou
(Roy Orbison, Joe Melson / Arr.: Ko-Do 2018)



I feel so bad - I've got a worried mind,
I'm so lonesome all the time
Since I left my baby behind on blue bayou
Saving nickels, saving dimes
Working 'till the sun don't shine
Looking forward to happier times, on blue bayou

I'm going back some day
Come what may
To blue bayou
Where you sleep all day
And the catfish play
On blue bayou
All those fishing boats
With their sails afloat,
If I could only see
That familiar sunrise
Through sleepy eyes
How happy I'd be

Go to see my baby again,
and to be with some of my friends
Maybe I'd be happy then, on blue bayou

I'm going back some day
Gonna stay
On blue bayou
Where the folks are fine
And the world is mine
On blue bayou
Oh, that girl of mine
By my side
The silver moon 
Ad the evening tide
Oh, some sweet day,
Gonna take away
This hurting inside

ll never be blue
My dreams come true
On blue bayou
