Lyrics
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Old man sun lifts his head, above the cypress trees
I lift myself up, out of my bed
The waters, they feel the touch of the morning breeze
As I rub my eyes and shake my weary head
[Chorus]
A beautiful morning on the bayou
There is no other place I'd rather be
A beautiful morning on the bayou
Louisiana is the only home for me
[Verse 2]
The egrets are flying low, above the water's shine
I slip on my boots, and head out the door
The birds, are singing songs to this old heart of mine
As I hop in my pirogue, headed out from the shore
[Guitars]
[Chorus]
A beautiful morning on the bayou
There is no other place I'd rather be
A beautiful morning on the bayou
Louisiana is the only home for me
[Verse 3]
Old man sun bows his head, behind the cypress trees
I wash myself up, climb into bed
The waters, they feel the touch of the evening breeze
As I rub my eyes and rest my weary head
[Chorus 3]
A beautiful life here, on the bayou
There is no other place I'd rather be
A beautiful morning, on the bayou
Louisiana is the only home for me
A beautiful morning, on the bayou
Louisiana is the only home for me
A beautiful morning, on the bayou
Louisiana is the only home for me
