Cowboy of the Bayou by Wayne Webster

        As I travel through the haunted bayou
          With those grinning crocodiles in cold pursuit
          I just think of all the good times I’ve had with you
          Far away from these haunted bayou days

         Out in the haunted bayou in the rain
         Up to my neck in crocodiles again.
         I just think of all the smiles that I’ve shared with you
         Miles away from these haunted bayou days

        Crocodiles slide into every stream
        And all through my nightmares drag down everything
        But I’ll keep heading on my steady way
        Back to you through these haunted bayou days

       Yeah!  I am a cowboy of the bayou
       Heading through the crocodiles and rain
       And if I can keep going, the sooner I’ll be with you
       On your open prairie once again

      Gotta drive these crocodiles away
      Make them into cowboy boots today
      And I will wear them as I ride away
       Ride away from these haunted bayou days

       Yeah!  I am a cowboy of the bayou
       Heading through the crocodiles and rain
       And if I can keep going, the sooner I’ll be with you
       On your open prairie once again

       Yeah!  I am a cowboy of the bayou
       Heading through the crocodiles and rain
       And if I can keep going, the sooner I’ll be with you
       On your open prairie once again

       On your open prairie once again

       On your open prairie once again

       Yodel eedle oddle ay eeeeeeee
       Yodel eedle oddle ay eeeeeeee
       Yodel eedle oddle ay------------
