Big bayou where do you go?
To the river runnin' slow
Into the Gulf of Mexico
Big bayou carry me home

I took a long trip to the city
Determined to get somewhere
I spent all my hard earned money
I had saved, put me there

Big bayou where do you go?
To the river runnin' slow
Into the Gulf of Mexico
Big bayou carry me home

I took a cotton pickin' job in Memphis
The people there treated me good
But my love rained bad in Nashville
I had to walk the streets of Hollywood

Big bayou where do you go?
To the river runnin' slow
Into the Gulf of Mexico
Big bayou carry me home

I'm coming home 
Where the fish jump in the air
I don't need a lot of money
'Cause I ain't goin' nowhere

Big bayou where do you go?
To the river runnin' slow
Into the Gulf of Mexico
Big bayou carry me home
