LYRICS
Verse
We met in a bar in New Orleans, she took me down Grand Isle way
Talked all night on a moonlit beach, I said, “Show me where the wild things play”
She laughed and pointed at her tattoo, it read ‘laissez les bon temps rouler’
Then she smiled and said, “Boy, if you wanna come with me, you’ll never be the same”
Chorus
We wake with a sigh to a Louisiana sunrise, drift down a lily pad creek
Hold hands in the sand as the gators float by, sip a little rum spiked tea
Soaking up the sunset underneath a cypress, watching the stars peak through
Dance by the bay to the rhythm of the rain
There’s a whole lotta sweet little love in the big bayou
Verse
This wasn’t my first love dance but steps down here ain’t tame
She took my hand, said, “Country man, backwaters are a new game”
Saw snakes and critters, ate strange food, wondered if I’d got in a mess
But when I looked in her eyes, I knew I was born to be with her, and then she said
Chorus
Let’s wake with a sigh to a Louisiana sunrise, drift down a lily pad creek
Hold hands in the sand as the gators float by, sip a little rum spiked tea
Soaking up the sunset underneath a cypress, watching the stars peak through
Dance by the bay to the rhythm of the rain
There’s a whole lotta sweet little love in the big bayou
Bridge
Maybe she cast a spell on me, she do the voodoo, too
But I don’t mind, she’s my delta dream and there’s nothing I’d rather do than
Chorus
Wake with a sigh to a Louisiana sunrise, drift down a lily pad creek
Hold hands in the sand as the gators float by, sip a little rum spiked tea
Soaking up the sunset underneath a cypress, watching the stars peak through
Dance by the bay to the rhythm of the rain
There’s a whole lotta sweet little; whole lotta sweet little
Whole lotta sweet little love in the big bayou in the big bayou
Love in the big bayou
