Louisiana Man
Oh yeh! Cajun man do all he can Gotta make a living he s a Louisiana man At birth Mama n Papa called their little boy Ned Raised him on the banks of the river bed A houseboat tied to a big tall tree A home for my mama and my papa and me The clock strikes three Papa jumps to his feet Already Mama s cooking Papa something to eat At half-past Papa he s a-ready to go He jumps in his bureau headed down the bayou He s got a fishing line strung across a Louisiana river Gotta catch a big fish for us to eat He sets his traps in the swamps catches anything he can Gotta make a living he s a Louisiana man Gotta make a living he s a Louisiana man Oh yeh! Cajun man do all he can Gotta make a living he s a Louisiana man They call Mama Rita and my daddy Jack the little baby brother on the floor is Mack Bryn and Lynn are the family twins Big brother Ed s on the bayou fishing Letras de canciones
On the river float Papa s great big boat That s how my papa goes into town
Takes every bit of the night and day
To even reach a place where the people stay He s got a fishing line strung across a Louisiana river Gotta catch a big fish for us to eat He sets his traps in the swamps catches anything he can Gotta make a living he s a Louisiana man Gotta make a living he s a Louisiana man I can hardly wait till tomorrow comes round That s the day my Papa takes his furs to town Papa said Son we got lines to run We come back again cause there s work to be done He s got a fishing line strung across a Louisiana river Gotta catch a big fish for us to eat He sets his traps in the swamps catches anything he can Gotta make a living he s a Louisiana man Gotta make a living he s a Louisiana man Oh yeh! Cajun man do all he can Gotta make a living he s a Louisiana man Gotta make a living he s a Louisiana man
