lyrics

I feel so bad I got a worried mind
I'm so lonesome all the time
Looking forward to happier times
On Blue Bayou

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

I'm going back someday
Come what may
To Blue Bayou
Where you sleep all day
And the catfish play
On Blue Bayou
Where those fishing boats
With their sails afloat
If I could only see
That familiar sunrise
Through sleepy eyes
How happy I'd be

Gonna see my baby again
And be with some of my friends
Maybe I’d be happy again
On Blue Bayou

I'm going back someday
Gonna stay
To Blue Bayou
Where the folks are fine
And the world is mine
On Blue Bayou
With that girl of mine
By my side
The silver moon in evening tide
Oh some sweet day
Gonna take away
This hurting’ inside
Well or (Will ??)
I'll never be blue
My dreams come true
On Blue Bayou

about

Willie Wisely Saint Paul, Minnesota

Equal parts Minnesotan music scene veteran and Laurel Canyon resident/devotee, Willie Wisely remains that rare bird mixing profound power pop with arena-sized showmanship, a troubadour on an all night rave up, a cold kombucha on a hot California day, a McCartney-ite taking a break from his Japanese import of “Ram” for a quick Canyon run listening to João Gilberto. ... more
