Long Lonely Bayou

She was mine and was fine back then
 I tried to say how much I'll love her 'till the end
 And there were time I couldn't say what I wanted to
 And now she's gone and I'm a long lonely bayou
 ♪
 Now I'm fillin' up from the rain
 The still waters are killing my veins
 My heart is driftin' like an old pirogue
 There's been a time with nowhere to go
 I find it hard to snake my way through the trees
 I can't even get a push from a breeze
 I was a man who found a love so true
 And now she's gone and I'm a long lonely bayou

 I can't even find a push from a breeze
