| A Good idea 'til your will is due
|
| Is go out to that place on the Tortous Bayou
|
| Maybe get lucky, maybe get shot
|
| Couldn’t be half the trouble I got
|
| Tortous Bayou, turn around
|
| Tortous Bayou, turn around
|
| It’s just another night with the misses and me
|
| Fittin' on the couch watching court T. V
|
| Let me tell you something can turn it real
|
| If you ever get thinking it’s a done deal
|
| Tortous Bayou, Turn around
|
| Get your big feet up off the ground
|
| Tortous Bayou, turn around
|
| Well if that’s a good time, now catch a ride to town
|
| She comes from the land of the Bodark tree
|
| Scott’s Irish and Cherokee
|
| She comes down here when the north blows
|
| She don’t care for the ice and snow
|
| Tortous Bayou, Turn around
|
| Get your big feet up off the ground
|
| Tortous Bayou, turn around
|
| Well if that’s a good time, now catch a ride to town
|
| Take my hand Oklahoma Jane
|
| One little mess wouldn’t hurt a thing
|
| Now it’s noon, I’m rolling up the drive
|
| Now I don’t even got a decent light
|
| Letting everybody getting their way sometimes
|
| I was looking at every woman that might
|
| I was looking at their faces, looking at their parts
|
| Looking through the whole in the bottom of my heart
|
| Tortous Bayou, turn around
|
| Well if that’s a good time, now catch a ride to town
|
| Tortous Bayou, turn around
|
| Tortous Bayou, turn around |
