My father was a gambler down in georgia
And he wound upon the wrong end of a gun
And i was born in the back seat of a greyhound bus
Rollin' down highway 41

[ guitar ]
Well i'm on my way to new orleans this mornin'
Leavin' out of nashville tennessee
They're always havin' a good time down on bayous lord
And cajun women think the world of me
