letra de cajun life - jo-el sonnier

[verse 1]
i was born on the bayou
thirty miles out of lafayette
my daddy was a cajun man
and he taught us how to plow
i remember mama’s breakfast
cush cush and a cane
steam served on a beignet
lord, i wish i had some now

[chorus]
i’m a cajun-born, i’m a cajun-bred
and when i die, i’ll be a cajun dead
if i die in alaska, if i die in ohio
my soul will find its way back to the bayou

[verse 2]
we went to church every sunday
we had a french-speaking preacher man
the kids joked about the preacher man
’cause we thought he wore a dress
after church we’d have a party
cajun music on a phonograph
he had a show singing “jole blonde”
he made a singer out of me
[chorus]
i’m a cajun-born, i’m a cajun-bred
and when i die, i’ll be a-cajun dead
if i die in alaska, if i die in ohio
my soul will find its way back to the bayou

[verse 3]
when i get enough to marry
i’ll get myself a cajun lady
someone sort of like my mama
’cause there ain’t no other kind, no other kind
wherever fortune takes me
if it makes me or it breaks me
those memories won’t forsake me
louisiana on my mind

[chorus]
i’m a cajun-born, i’m a cajun-bred
and when i die, i’ll be a-cajun dead
if i die in alaska, if i die in ohio
my soul will find its way back to the bayou
