Lyrics

Cajun Queen




Took a walk on the levee just to watch the waters run


Mist rising from the river in the early morning sun


There I saw a woman walking so strong and proud


I couldn’t help myself, I said it right out loud:



Tell me Tell me Baby, is it true you’re the Cajun Queen


Born up in the Delta, but raised down in New Orleans.


The mighty mighty river is running in your blood


Can you feel the power feel the Mississippi mud.


And a little bit of voodoo, mixed up with red beans and rice


I got to tell you mama, it all came out so nice.


She said: you are a stranger, but a friend I have no doubt


And when you look me in the eye it makes me scream and shout







But you know I ain’t your baby, but that’s no nevermind


Just keep on saying baby, and maybe we can find the time.


{CHORUS)


She took me down to the Quarter when the day turned into night


With all the ladies with their skirts so pretty lean and tight


When they saw her walking up, so proud and serene


They bowed down low in respect of her royalty.
