[Verse]
AI was born on the bayou thirty miles out of LafaEyette
My daddy was a Cajun man and he taught me how to pAlow
I remember mama's breaEkfast goosh-goosh in the cAaye
Steams're upon the banEje I wish I had me some nAow
[Chorus]
I'm a Cajun bEorn I'm a Cajun brAead
And when I die I'll be Cajun deEad
If I die in AlaAska if I die in OhDio
My soul will fiEnd its way back to the baAyou
[Verse]
AWent to church every Sunday had a French talkin' preacher mEan
We kids joked about the preacher man cause we thought he wore a drAess
After church we had a paErty Cajun music on the phonAograph
Harry Short sinEging Jole Blon made a singer out of mAe
[Chorus]
I'm a Cajun bEorn I'm a Cajun brAead
And when I die I'll be Cajun deEad
If I die in AlaAska if I die in OhDio
My soul will fiEnd its way back to the baAyou
[Verse]
AWhen I get enough to marry get myself a Cajun laEdy
Some sort like my mama cause I ain't no other kiAnd
And wherever fortune taEkes me with the breaks or makes mAe
Memory won't forEsake me got Louisiana on my mAind
[Chorus]
I'm a Cajun bEorn I'm a Cajun brAead
And when I die I'll be Cajun deEad
If I die in AlaAska if I die in OhDio
My soul will fiEnd its way back to the baAyou
