Bayou Tortous

A Good idea 'til your will is due

Is go out to that place on the Tortous Bayou

Maybe get lucky, maybe get shot

Couldn't be half the trouble I got

Tortous Bayou, turn around

Tortous Bayou, turn around

It's just another night with the misses and me

Fittin' on the couch watching court T.V

Let me tell you something can turn it real

If you ever get thinking it's a done deal

Tortous Bayou, Turn around

Get your big feet up off the ground

Tortous Bayou, turn around

Well if that's a good time, now catch a ride to town

She comes from the land of the Bodark tree

Scott's Irish and Cherokee

She comes down here when the north blows

She don't care for the ice and snow

Tortous Bayou, Turn around

Get your big feet up off the ground

Tortous Bayou, turn around

Well if that's a good time, now catch a ride to town

Take my hand Oklahoma Jane

One little mess wouldn't hurt a thing

Now it's noon, I'm rolling up the drive

Now I don't even got a decent light

Letting everybody getting their way sometimes

I was looking at every woman that might

I was looking at their faces, looking at their parts

Looking through the whole in the bottom of my heart

Tortous Bayou, turn around

Well if that's a good time, now catch a ride to town

Tortous Bayou, turn around

Tortous Bayou, turn around
