Lyrics

If you take a trip

From the Atchafalaya basin

To Louisiana?s tip

Then you?ll catch a glimpse

Of life from another time

Generations flow by

As the bayou glides

Quietly into the Gulf

Quietly into the Gulf

Chorus

We remember our roots

We honor our dead

We praise the Lord

That blesses our boats

& No matter how far we roam

We?re all bound by Cajun Blood

We?re all bound by Cajun Blood


When that fiddle rings

And that old squeeze box

Starts to sing

You?ll get swept away

By the sounds of yesterday

So hold your partner tight

There is only tonight

Allon Dancer

Allon Dancer

Chorus

Bridge:

& people wonder why we stay

When each year we might get blown away?

Chorus
