Way down in the bayou
Where all the folks say hi-you
The people like to see that sun go down
So they can kick off their shoes and get y'r guitar down

[Chorus]
Bayou rock
How to do y'r bayou rock
How to do y'r bayou rock
How to do y'r bayou rock
How to do y'r bayou rock
How to do y'r bayou rock
Bayou rock, bayou rock

Patcheye Willy learned a new lick
Grandpa dancing with a broomstick
People are coming from miles around
To hear uncle John play a hoedown

Sun coming up from over the hill
Not a soul in the house is a sitting still
Pa said, now we gotta slow it down
But we'll do it again when the sun goes down
