Hey now (hey now)

Hey now (hey now)

Hey now (hey now)

My grandma see your grandpa

Sitting by the Bayou

My grandma see your granpa

Gonna fix your chicken wire

My spy dog see your spy dog

Sitting by the Bayou

My spy dog see your spy dog

Gonna set your tail on fire

My little boy see your little boy

Sitting by the Bayou

My little boy see your little boy

Gonna fix your chicken wire

My grandma see your grandma

Sitting by the Bayou

My grandma see your grandma

Gonna fix your chicken wire

“It's the same story the crow told me
It's the only one he knows
Like the morning sun you come
And like the wind you go”
