 Baby that preacher gave you spring
 In the window with his finger 
 In the undertaker's wing
 
 Chorus:
 Oh, Cajun Woman
 Some people still call you a queen
 I don't believe you're sinking
 Look at all the trouble you've been 
 He grew up in the Bayou 
 With a Bible around his neck
 He never loved a woman 
 In the way you would expect
 
 (Chorus)
 
 Don't tell him about his father, 
 Don't tell him about his name
 The Gods won't get to heaven 
 Till they'll crucify his brain
 
 (Chorus)
 
 Well, it's welcome to the graveyard 
 And welcome to the throne
 Welcome to the orphanage 
 Where your family sit and moan
 Welcome to the liquor stand 
 And welcome to the poor
 Your mama never told you how lucky you are
 
 (Chorus)
