[Verse 1]
Cmaj7 I remember as a child all the happiness and smiles Cmaj7 G7sus G7 That flowed around my Grandma's Sunday table G7sus G7 While Auntie May was sayin' grace G7sus G7 Papa T. would sneak a taste G7sus G7 Cmaj7 And catch a funny look from my cousin Mabel
[Verse 2]
Cmaj7 Then Daddy'd beat the drum, the old folks start to hum Cmaj7 G7sus G7 And sing the only song that we all knew G7sus G7 G7sus G7 Ambiance so fine dancin' drinkin' wine G7sus G7 Cmaj7 Sing about the lifestyle on the bayou
