Bayou Electric Blues

(hmmmm-uh) Black water rising to my knees Spanish moss

hanging from the trees

(oh yeah) Whiskey bottle sinking in the clay

I can't find my way

Down in the swamp,

the spirits rise

Underneath the heavy

violet skies

Lost in the haze,

we drift away (whoaaa)

No tomorrow,

only yesterday

Old alligator on the river bank

Drinking water from a rusty tank

(uh-huh) Dreaming of a time that's long gone by

Sun burning in the muddy sky

Down in the swamp,

the spirits rise

Underneath the heavy

violet skies

Lost in the haze,

we drift away

(yeah yeah)

No tomorrow,

only yesterday

Slowly drifting,

lost in time

(sinking down)

Nothing matters,

no reason or rhyme

Lost in the bayou... (hmmmm-uh)

Sinking in the clay...
