Roy Orbison - Blue Bayou Lyrics

I feel so bad, I've got a worried mind
I'm so lonesome all the time
Since I left my baby behind
On Blue Bayou

Saving nickels, saving dimes
Working 'til the sun don't shine
Looking forward to happier times
On Blue Bayou

I'm going back some day
Come what may
To Blue Bayou
Where you sleep all day
And the catfish play
On Blue Bayou

All those fishing boats
With their sails afloat
If I could only see
That familiar sunrise
Through sleepy eyes
How happy I'd be

Go to see my baby again
And to be with some of my friends
Maybe I'd be happy then
On Blue Bayou

Saving nickels, saving dimes
Working 'til the sun don't shine
Looking forward to happier times on Blue Bayou
I'm going back some day
Gonna stay on Blue Bayou

Where the folks are fine
And the world is mine
On Blue Bayou
Ah, that girl of mine by my side
The silver moon and the evening tide
Oh some sweet day
Gonna take away this hurtin' inside
I'll never be blue
My dreams come true
On Blue Bayou
