lover of the bayou

catfish pie in gris gris bag

i'm the lover of the bayou

mark your doorstep with a half wet rag

i'm the lover of the bayou

raised and swam with the crocodile

snake-eye taught me the mojo style

sucked and weened on chicken bile

i'm the lover of the bayou

i learned the key to the master lock

i learned to float in the water clock

learned to capture the lightning shock

i'm the lover of the bayou

and i got cats an' teeth and hair for sale

i'm the lover of the bayou

there are zombies on your tail

i'm the lover of the bayou

i cooked the bat in the gumbo pan

i drank the blood from a rusty can

turned me into the hunger man

i'm the lover of the bayou
