Catfish pie in a gris-gris bag,

Snake-eye taught me the mojo style,

Am                     G
sucked and weaned on chicken bile,

I learned to float in the water clock.

Am                        G

I'm the lover of the Bayou.

I cooked the bat in the gumbo pan,

Fadd9                   Am
drank the blood from a rusty can.

Am                  G
turned me into the hunger man,

I'm the lover of the Bayou, yeah!
