Lyrics for 'Blue Bayou'  by Linda Ronstadt

I feel so bad, I 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 'til the sun don't shine,
Looking forward to happier times,
On Blue Bayou.

I'm going back someday,
Come what may,
To Blue Bayou.
Where the folks are fine,
And the world is mine
On Blue Bayou.
Where those fishing boats,
With their sails afloat,
If I could only see,
That familiar sunrise,
Through sleepy eyes,
How happy I'd be.

Gonna see my baby again.
Gonna be with some of my friends.
Maybe I'll feel better again,
On Blue Bayou.

Saving nickels, saving dimes,
Working 'til the sun don't shine,
Looking forward to happier times,
On Blue Bayou.

I'm going back someday,
gonna stay on Blue Bayou.
Where the folks are fine,
And the world is mine
On Blue Bayou.

Oh, that boy of mine,
By my side;
The silver moon and the evening tide.
Oh, some sweet day,
Gonna take away,
This hurting inside.
Well, I'll never be blue,
My dreams come true,
On Blue Bayou.
