I know a girl named Edie
G
She’s a good friend of mine
C –walk to- Am
Living on the bayou
       G
On Evangeline

        C –walk to- Am
Well she's pretty as a picture 
         G
In a magazine
G
She ‘bout the prettiest little thing 
D/F#     G
You ever seen

Well I’m back upon muddy water
Down where the big fish go
Running on the banks
Of the little pee-reaux?

And all day long
What I’m thinking of
Well I’m hoping I can snag me
A little Cajun dove

===chorus===
G 
She lives down
           C –walk to- Am
In a 2 bit town
G
With a pond and the groves
    D/F#
All around

        G
Tell me where 
                  C –walk to- Am        
In the whole damn world
          G
You won’t never find love
D/F#         G
Like a bayou girl
===end chorus===

Well I’m sitting in a shotgun cabin
And man it's a mighty fine
We sure do have some fun
Sure do have a real good time

Dancing and a singing
I guarantee
To the “old deaux deaux”
And the “fiddle dee dee”

----guitar solo----

Someday were gonna get married
She will be the bon ton bride
Many people come
Watch us stand side by side

Gonna have a little band
Play fee deaux deaux
Etoufee
And a hot dog roll

---chorus---

Ain’t nothing the world
Like a bayou girl
