CAJUN BORN

Left pretty Jo 
A                                               E
I was born on the bayou thirty miles out of Lafayette 
                                                  A
My daddy was a Cajun man and he taught me how to plow 
                      E                         A
I remember mama's breakfast goosh-goosh in the caye 
                      E                        A
Steams're upon the banje I wish I had me some now 

             E                 A
I'm a Cajun born I'm a Cajun bread 
                               E
And when I die I'll be Cajun dead 
               A                 D
If I die in Alaska if I die in Ohio 
               E                        A
My soul will find its way back to the bayou 

A                                                          E
Went to church every Sunday had a French talkin' preacher man 
                                                                  A
We kids joked about the preacher man cause we thought he wore a dress 
                        E                          A
After church we had a party Cajun music on the phonograph 
               E                                    A 
Harry Short singing Jole Blon made a singer out of me 

             E                 A
I'm a Cajun born I'm a Cajun bread 
                               E
And when I die I'll be Cajun dead 
               A                 D
If I die in Alaska if I die in Ohio 
               E                        A
My soul will find its way back to the bayou

A                                               E
When I get enough to marry get myself a Cajun lady 
                                                A
Some sort like my mama cause I ain't no other kind 
                       E                                A
And wherever fortune takes me with the breaks or makes me 
                E                            A
Memory won't forsake me got Louisiana on my mind 

             E                 A
I'm a Cajun born I'm a Cajun bread 
                               E
And when I die I'll be Cajun dead 
               A                 D
If I die in Alaska if I die in Ohio 
               E                        A
My soul will find its way back to the bayou
