Down in New Orleans, in Lucky's din

He wouldn't deal y'all for a 5th of gin

One dude wanted a bottle of wine

Hit that dude yes he did up for a dollar and a dime

Fire, on the bayou     (4x)

I got a nickel now, you got a dime

Let's get together and have a good time

Goin' to buy a fifth, going to buy a joint

when you gettin' down now, you doin' things right"

Fire, on the bayou     (4x)       oooh..

Fire, on the bayou     (2x)

Take a little toke on your smoke

Buy yourself a bottle of wine

Cool, cool wine going down your throat

Don't try and tell me don't make you feel fine

(Light your) Fire, on the bayou     (4x) oooh..
