Saving nickles saving dimes Oh that boy of mine Oh some sweet day By my side How happy I'd be Where those fishing boats Gonna see my baby again And the world is mine On Blue Bayou The silver moon Gonna take away On Blue Bayou And the evening tide And the world is mine To Blue Bayou Come what may Where the folks are fine On Blue Bayou Since I left my baby behind On Blue Bayou Come what may If I could only see Saving nickles saving dimes I'm so lonesome all the time To Blue Bayou Maybe I'll feel better again On Blue Bayou If I could only see Gonna be with some of my friends I'm going back someday My dreams come true Where the folks are fine Through sleepy eyes This hurting inside With their sails afloat That familiar sunrise How happy I'd be On Blue Bayou Working til the sun don't shine Through sleepy eyes That familiar sunrise Well I'll never be blue With their sails afloat Looking forward to happier times I'm going back someday Looking forward to happier times Working til the sun don't shine
