Well I went outta fishin` to make a little mon
To take to Cajun Leena so we could have some fun
On the way back I knocked a hole in my bowl
I got a hole in my pirogue I can`t go see no gal
The prettiest sight that you ever have seen some moonlite night down in New Orleans
I`m up the river just around the bend
I got a hole in my pirogue I just can`t haul it in
[ guitar ]
Cajun Leena`s waitin` with tears in her eyes mouchin` and a crouchin` on a crawfish pie
I can`t smell no feelin` floatin` through the air
I got a hole in my pirogue I can`t go see my share
The prettiest sight...
[ guitar ]
Yeah I`m here on the bayoo sittin` all alone
With a busted bottom and I can`t haul it home
Cajun Leena`s waitin` lonesome as can be
I got a hole in my pirogue I can`t go see my she
The prettiest sight...
