No, no, mamma now didn＇t I docey-doe
Two young boys lyin＇ dead by the side of the road
The coins on their eyes represent the money they owe
No judge or jury ever gonna hear their story told
Down by the bayou
Tryin to play with the cain-you
Tryin to play with the cain-you
Say my story again-you
Louisiana Bayou
Down by the bayou
Tryin to play with the cain-you
Tryin to play with the cain-you
Say my story again-you
Louisiana Bayou
Sweet girl daddy didn＇t put that there like he＇s insane
Brother can＇t watch him put that girl down again
＇Till late one night took a knife
with a couple of friends
Swear his daddy never gonna see another day
Down by the bayou
Tryin to play with the cain-you
Tryin to play with the cain-you
Say my story again-you
Louisiana Bayou
Down by the bayou
Tryin to play with the cain-you
Tryin to play with the cain-you
Say my story again-you
Louisiana Bayou
No, no, mamma now didn＇t I docey-doe
Two young boys lyin＇ dead by the side of the road
Shame, shame
It＇s a shame to lose your way as a child
Money on the bed but you aint got to go
Sold your soul just tryin to get overload
No airtight pocket gonna keep ya from gettin yours
No judge or jury ever gonna hear their story told
Down by the bayou
Tryin to play with the cain-you
Tryin to play with the cain-you
Say my story again-you
Louisiana Bayou
Down by the bayou
Tryin to play with the cain-you
Tryin to play with the cain-you
Say my story again-you
Louisiana Bayou
No, no, mamma now didn＇t I docey-doe

Say my story again-you
Louisiana Bayou
Down by the bayou
Tryin to play with the cain-you
