G
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
