Big Bayou — текст песни (Rod Stewart)

(Gib Gilbeau)

I took a long, long trip to the city
I was determined to get somewhere
I spent all my hard earned money
I had saved to put me there

Big bayou where did you go
To the river that`s running slow
and to the Gulf of Mexico
Big bayou carry me home

I took a cotton picking job in Memphis
And the people there treated me good
But my luck run bad in Nashville
I had to walked the streets of Hollywood

Big bayou where did you go
To the river that`s running slow
into the Gulf of Mexico
Big bayou carry me home

Oh Lord I`m going home
Where the fish jump in the air
You know I don`t need a lot of money
Cause I ain`t going nowhere

Big bayou where did you go
To the river that`s running slow
into the Gulf of Mexico
Big bayou carry me home

Big bayou carry me home
To the river that`s running slow
into the Gulf of Mexico
Big bayou where did you go

I`m gonna catch a southbound
train home one of these days
