[Verse 1]
I was born on the bayou
Thirty miles out of Lafayette
My daddy was a Cajun man
Lord, he taught us how to plow
I remember mama's breakfast
Cush cush and a cane
Being served on a beignet
Lord, I wish I had some now
[Chorus]
I'm a Cajun-born, I'm a Cajun-bred
And when I die, I'm a Cajun dead
If I die in Alaska, if I die in Ohio
This soul will find its way back to the bayou
[Verse 2]
We went to church every Sunday
We had a French-speaking preacher man
We joked about the preacher man
'Cause we thought he wore a dress, yes
After church we had a party
We played our music on the phonograph
We had a man singing "Jole Blon"
Oh, made a sinner out of me
I was born on the bayou
Thirty miles out of Lafayette
My daddy was a Cajun man
Lord, he taught us how to plow
I remember mama's breakfast
Cush cush and a cane
Being served on a beignet
Lord, I wish I had some now
[Chorus]
I'm a Cajun-born, I'm a Cajun-bred
And when I die, I'm a Cajun dead
If I die in Alaska, if I die in Ohio
This soul will find its way back to the bayou
[Verse 2]
We went to church every Sunday
We had a French-speaking preacher man
We joked about the preacher man
'Cause we thought he wore a dress, yes
After church we had a party
We played our music on the phonograph
We had a man singing "Jole Blon"
Oh, made a sinner out of me
