[Verse 1]
[C][F][C]
[F]At[C][G][C]
birth,
Mama, Papa called a little boy Ned
Raised him on the banks of the [G]river[C]bed
A houseboat tied to a big tall tree
A home for my Papa and my [G]Mama and [C]me
Well the clock strikes three,
Papa jumps to his feet
Already Mama's cooking
Papa [G]something to [C]eat
At a half past, Papa, he's ready to go
He jumps in his speedo,
headed [G]down the bay[C]ou
He's got [F]fishing lines
strung across the Louisiana River
Gotta catch a big fish for [C]us to [F]eat
Setting traps in the swamps,
catching everything he can
Trying to make a living,
he's a Louisiana man
Trying to make a living,
he's [C]a Louisiana man[F]
[C]Muskrat hides are hanging by
the desert
Even got a lady make a
[G]muskrat [C]cousin
Got him out drying in the hot, sun
Tomorrow, Papa's gonna turn
[G]up in the [C]barn[F][C]
[F][C]
Well, they call Mama Rita
and my daddy's Jack
The little baby brother on the floor,
that's Mack
And Red and Lynn are the family twins
Big Brother Ed on the [G]bio [C]-fishing
On the riverboat,
Papa's great big boat
That's how my Papa goes into town
Takes every bit of a night and a day
To even reach the place where
the [G]people stay[C]
I [F]can hardly wait until tomorrow comes
around
That's the day my papa takes
the [C]first to [F]town
Papa promised me that I could go
Even let me see a cowboy show
I seen the [C]cowboys and Indians
for the first time then I told papa,
papa, gotta [G]come [C]again
Papa said, son, we got lines to run
Come back again when
the [G]work is all [C]done
He's got [F]fishing lines
strung across the Louisiana River
Gotta catch a big fish [C]for us two
[F]He's settin' traps in the swamps
Catchin' everything he can
Tryin' to make a livin'
He's a Louisiana man
Tryin' to make a livin'
He's a [C]Louisiana [F]man
Yee [C]-haw!
[F][C]
