《Queen of the Bayou》歌词

[00:00:00] Queen of the Bayou - Julian Dawson

[00:00:05] This town came alive

[00:00:07] On the day she arrived

[00:00:09] She was nothing like we'd ever seen

[00:00:15] Her suitcase was battered

[00:00:17] Her clothes a little tattered

[00:00:19] And torn but she moved like a queen

[00:00:24] And word soon got round

[00:00:26] To the boys in town

[00:00:29] They gathered like moths to a flame

[00:00:34] When she stepped on the stage

[00:00:36] Of the rainy night grill

[00:00:38] I knew the town would never

[00:00:40] Be quite the same

[00:00:43] She was queen of the bayou

[00:00:46] From Chauvin to Mamoo

[00:00:48] Every town has a story to tell

[00:00:53] And you won't find a man

[00:00:55] In South Lousian' would deny

[00:00:59] He's been under her spell

[00:01:03] She took the best room

[00:01:04] At the Empire hotel

[00:01:07] They called the Napoleon suite

[00:01:12] And she'd lay there for hours

[00:01:14] Among mountains of flowers

[00:01:17] And jewels love laid at her feet

[00:01:22] And when evening came down

[00:01:24] She'd parade through the town

[00:01:27] The crowds were a sight to be seen

[00:01:31] Just a smile and a wave

[00:01:33] And she'd make you her slave

[00:01:36] It's no wonder

[00:01:37] We called her the queen

[00:01:41] She was queen of the bayou

[00:01:43] From Mamoo to Thibodeaux

[00:01:46] She captured each Parish and town

[00:01:50] And she shined every city

[00:01:53] On the old Mississippi

[00:01:55] Till they gleamed

[00:01:56] Like the jewels in her crown

[00:02:03] It didn't take long

[00:02:04] To see something was wrong

[00:02:07] We could tell

[00:02:08] She was restless again

[00:02:12] She'd wrecked all the lives

[00:02:14] Of the sweethearts and wives

[00:02:17] And ruined the hearts of their men

[00:02:22] She checked in her keys

[00:02:24] And she left us the breeze

[00:02:27] And nothing but memories to keep

[00:02:31] On the day she left town

[00:02:34] The clocks all slowed down

[00:02:36] And the town simply went back to sleep

[00:02:43] She was queen of the bayou

[00:02:46] From Chauvin to Mamoo

[00:02:48] Every town has a story to tell

[00:02:53] And you won't find a man

[00:02:55] In South Lousian' would deny

[00:02:59] He's been under her spell

[00:03:02] She was queen of the bayou

[00:03:05] From Mamoo to Thibodeaux

[00:03:07] She captured each Parish and town

[00:03:12] And she shined every city

[00:03:14] On the old Mississippi

[00:03:17] Till they gleamed

[00:03:18] Like the jewels in her crown

[00:03:22] And she shined every city

[00:03:24] On the old Mississippi

[00:03:26] Till they gleamed

[00:03:28] Like the jewels in her crown
