Lyrics Né dans le bayou Francis Cabrel

 1.081

Né dans le bayou


J'suis né dans un bar au bord d'un marécage
Par une nuit de lune fine
J'ai appris à marcher dans le fond d'une barque
Contre les crosses d'une carabine

J'suis né dans le Bayou

Je peux lire futur dans les entrailles des tatous
Après j'essuie le sang sûr mes jeans
J'étais dans les meilleurs à l'école de vodou
Des sorciers noirs de New Orléans

J'suis né dans le Bayou
J'suis né dans le Bayou

J'ai le cœur dur comme de l'alligator
Celui qui sèche dans la court
J'en mange un peu
Je danse autour
On dit que c'est bon pour l'amour

J'suis né dans le Bayou

En parlant de ça, j'suis pas un phénomène
Mais je me débrouille pour plaire
J'ai mon beau costard pou les fins de semaine
Quand Peggy met sa robe légère

J'suis né dans le Bayou
J'suis né dans le Bayou

Et je danse je danse sur la terre que j'aime
Celle que si gagne sur la boue
Et je marche je marche dans la belle lumière
Verte du Bayou

Et je danse je danse sur la terre que j'aime
Celle que si gagne sur la boue
Et j'avance j'avance dans la belle lumière
Verte du Bayou

J'suis né dans un bar au bord d'un marécage
Par une nuit de lune fine
J'ai appris à marcher dans le fond d'une barque
Contre les crosses d'une carabine

J'suis né dans le Bayou
J'suis né dans le Bayou

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
