Sandy Denny - Cajun Woman Lyrics
Baby that preacher gave you springIn the window with his finger in the undertakers wingChorusOh, cajun womanSome people still call you a queenI dont believe youre sinkingLook at all the trouble youve beenHe grew up in the bayou with a Bible around his neckHe never loved a woman in the way you would expect(chorus)Dont tell him about his father, dont tell him about his nameThe gods wont get to heaven till theyll crucify his brain(chorus)Well, its welcome to the graveyard and welcome to the throneWelcome to the orphanage where your family sit and moanWelcome to the liquor stand and welcome to the poorYour mama never told you how lucky you are(chorus)
