Catfish pie in gris gris bag I'm the lover of the bayou Mark your doorstep with a half wet rag I'm the lover of the bayou Raised and swam with the crocodile Snake-eye taught me the Mojo style Sucking weed on chicken bile I'm the lover of the bayou
I learned the key to the master look I learned to float in the water clock I learned to capture the lightning shock I'm the lover of the bayou And I got cat's an' teeth and hair for sale I'm the lover of the bayou Look out, look out, Baron Zombies on your tail I'm the lover of the bayou
I cooked the bat in the gumbo pan I drank the blood, drank the blood from a rusty can Turned me into the Honga man I'm the lover of the bayou
