Lyrics

Dark Eyed Cajun Girl

Down a windin' dirt road out where the swampweed grow
In a rusted ol' tin roof shack
Lived a girl in her prime who been widowed three times
Cause her temper don't cut no slack

Well the whole town heard the sheriff's own word
A promise he would haul her in
With a mean ol' hound he gonna track her down
Cause one husband were his own kin

CHORUS
So don't lay a hand on the dark eyed Cajun girl
be the last thing ya do before ya leave this world
She knows her way round the Louisiana swamp
Know the place where the alligator chomp
So don't lay a hand on the dark eyed Cajun girl

She wandered patiently quiet as can be
& led him thru the bug filled bog
Didn't take long 'fore the sheriff was gone
And he vanished in the misty fog
CHORUS
BRIDGE
Ain't nobody ever caught her
Cause trouble disappears in the muddy water
CHORUS
