Blue Bayou

I went down walking by the Blue Bayou and I saw the sun go down. I thought about old Greeley and I thought about Lou and I saw the sun go down. White man makes me work all day and I work too hard for too little pay- The a white man takes my woman away. I'll kill old Greeley. The Blue Bayou turns red as a fire put the black man on a rope and pull him higher! I saw the sun go down. Put him on the rope and pull him higher! The Blue Bayou's a pool of fire. And I saw the sun go down, down down, lawd, I saw the sun go down!
