No, no, mama, now devil done do-si-do 
Two young boys lyindead by the side of the road 
And the coins in their eyes represent the money they owe 
No judge or jury ever gonna hear the story told 

Down by the bayou 
Trying to play with the caine 
Trying to play with the caine 
Same old story again 
(Louisiana bayou) down by the bayou 
Trying to play with the caine 
Trying to play with the caine 
Same old story again 
Louisiana bayou 

Sweet girl, daddy done beat that girl like he's insane 
Brother can't watch him beat that girl down again 
So late one night cookin' up with a couple of friends 
Swears his daddy never gonna see another day 

Down by the bayou 
Trying to play with the caine 
Trying to play with the caine 
Same old story again 
(Louisiana bayou) down by the bayou 
Trying to play with the caine 
Trying to play with the caine 
Same old story again 
(Louisiana bayou) bring down a saint 

No, no, mama, the devil done do-si-do 
See two young boys lying dead by side of the road 
Shame shame 

Oh its a shame to lose your way running wild 
Oh it's a shame to lose the light that shines (shame shame) 
Oh it's a shame to lose your way as a child 
Oh it's a shame to lose your 

Money on the bed, but you ain't got to go 
Sold your soul just tryin to get over low 
No empty pocket gonna keep you from gettin yours 
No judge or jury ever gonna hear the story told 

Down by the bayou 
Trying to play with the caine 
Trying to play with the caine 
Same old story again 
(Louisiana bayou) down by the bayou 
Trying to play with the caine 
Trying to play with the caine 
Same old story again 
(Louisiana bayou)

No, no, mama, trying devil done do-si-do 
Two young boys lying dead by the side of the road 

(Louisiana bayou) down by the bayou 
Trying to play with the caine 
Trying to get with the pain 
See there's nowhere to go 

Louisiana bayou 
Trying to play with the caine 
Trying to play with the caine 
Troubles do it again 

Same old sold story again (Louisiana bayou) 
Trying to play with the caine 
Trying to play with the caine 
Same old story again 

(Louisiana bayou) down by the bayou 
Trying to play with the caine 
Trying to play with the caine 
Same old story again 

(Louisiana bayou) down by the bayou 
Trying to play with the aine 

Oh it's a shame to lose your way running wild (same old story again) 
Oh it's a shame to lose the light that shines 
Oh it's a shame to lose your way as a child 
Oh (same old story again) it's a shame to lose your? 

Down by the bayou 
Louisiana bayou?
