[VERSE]
[A]I was born on the bayou thirty miles out of Lafa[E]yette
My daddy was a Cajun man and he taught me how to p[A]low
I remember mama's brea[E]kfast goosh-goosh in the c[A]aye
Steams're upon the ban[E]je I wish I had me some n[A]ow
[CHORUS]
I'm a Cajun b[E]orn I'm a Cajun br[A]ead
And when I die I'll be Cajun de[E]ad
If I die in Ala[A]ska if I die in Oh[D]io
My soul will fi[E]nd its way back to the ba[A]you
[VERSE]
[A]Went to church every Sunday had a French talkin' preacher m[E]an
We kids joked about the preacher man cause we thought he wore a dr[A]ess
After church we had a pa[E]rty Cajun music on the phon[A]ograph
Harry Short sin[E]ging Jole Blon made a singer out of m[A]e
[CHORUS]
I'm a Cajun b[E]orn I'm a Cajun br[A]ead
And when I die I'll be Cajun de[E]ad
If I die in Ala[A]ska if I die in Oh[D]io
My soul will fi[E]nd its way back to the ba[A]you
[VERSE]
[A]When I get enough to marry get myself a Cajun la[E]dy
Some sort like my mama cause I ain't no other ki[A]nd
And wherever fortune ta[E]kes me with the breaks or makes m[A]e
Memory won't for[E]sake me got Louisiana on my m[A]ind
[CHORUS]
I'm a Cajun b[E]orn I'm a Cajun br[A]ead
And when I die I'll be Cajun de[E]ad
If I die in Ala[A]ska if I die in Oh[D]io
My soul will fi[E]nd its way back to the ba[A]you
