Born on the bayou chords
Start Jamming...
After the horrific events down in the Gulf this past couple of weeks, I know every American,
I know all you people's heart goes out to those folks.
And particularly in my case, I've had a lifelong fascination with that region of the country,
particularly New Orleans.
And I'm probably a guy who can [C] truthfully say I left my heart [E] in New Orleans.
So some of these songs you'll notice are kind of near and dear.
[D] [A] [E] Listen down to who do they [D] [A] [E] want on the [D] bayou.
[A] [E] Want on the [D] [A] [E]

[D] Do [A] it, do [E] it, do it.

I wish I was back on the bayou.
Rolling with some kind of queen.
Wishing I was that, that queen.
Dreaming just to get off down in New Orleans.
[D] [A] [E] Want on the [D] bayou.
