Lyrics of Cajun born

Left pretty jo i was born on the bayoo thirty miles out of lafaiette
My daddy was a cajun man and he taught me how to plow
I remember mama's breakfast goosh-goosh in the caye
Steams're upon the banje i wish i had me some now
I'm a cajun born i'm a cajun bread and when i die i'll be cajun dead
If i die in alaska if i die in ohio my soul will find its way back to the bayou
went to church every sunday had a frensh talkin' preacher man
We kids joked about the preacher man cause we thought he wore a dress

After church we had a party cajun music on the phonograph
Harry short singing jole blon made a singer out of me
I'm a cajun born...

When i get enough to marry get myself a cajun lady
Some sorta like my mama cause i ain't no other no other kind
And wherever fortune takes me with the breaks or makes me
Memory won't forsake me got louisiana on my mind
I'm a cajun born...
