  • At first mom and papa called their little boy Ned
  • They raise him on the banks of the river bed
  • A houseboat tied to a big tall tree a home for my papa and my mama and me
  • The clock strikes three papa jumps to his feet
  • Already mama's cookin' papa somethin' to eat
  • At half past papa he's ready to go he jumps in his piro headed down the bayou
  • He's got fishin' lines strung across the Louisiana River
  • Gotta catch a big fish for us to eat
  • Headin' crops in the swamp catchin' everythin' he can
  • Gotta make a livin' he's a Louisiana man gotta make a livin' he's a Louisiana man
  • Muskart hides a hangin' by the dozen even got a lady make a muskart's cousin
  • Pile of hide drying in the hot hot sun tomorrow papa's gonna turn them into mon
  • [ steel ]
  • Well they call mama Rita and my daddy Jack
  • A little baby brother on the floor that's Mac
  • Riz and Liz are the family twins big brother Ed's on the bayou fishin'
  • On the river float papa's great big boat that's how my papa goes into town
  • He takes every bit of the night and day
  • Then ever reach the place where the people stay
  • I can hardly wait till tomorrow comes around
  • That's the day my papa takes his fure to town
  • Papa promised me that I could go even let me see a cowboy show
  • I saw the cowboys and Indians for the first time then I told my papa gotta go again
  • Papa said son we got the lines to run we'll come back again there's work to be done
  • He's got fishin' lines...
