Cajun Born

                  C
I was born on the bayou
                F
Thirty miles of Layfayette
               G
My daddy was a cajun man
                         C
Lord he taught us how to plow
                  C
I remember mama's breakfast
                F
Cush Cush and a Kaye
                  G
Being served on a Banyee
                      C
Oh, I wish I had some now

            G
I'm a cajun born
            C
I'm a cajun bred
       G
When I die
            C
I'm a cajun dead
            C
If I die in Alaska
            F
If I die in Ohio
               G
This soul will find its way
            C
