I think back to the time
When I first saw your face
You were walkin across the delta
To your cold and lonely place
You know I took you for a small girl
Really not quite seventeen
Oh Lord but I was wrong oh so wrong
You're like a woman I've never seen
Dark eyed Cajun woman
Where are you comin from
Your soul is in the back woods
They say you never had a home
But I'm gonna know you better
If it takes all night and day
Dark eyed Cajun woman
You'll never get away no no
Now the evenin breeze is blowin
I hear your voice most everywhere
Your cold black eyes
They are dancin in the starlight
Warmin the cold night air
It's so beautiful you know I have to say
Dark eyed Cajun woman
You'll never get away
Now the evenin breeze is blowin
I hear your voice most everywhere
Your cold black eyes
They are dancin in the starlight
Warmin the cold night air
It's so beautiful you know I have to say
Dark eyed Cajun woman
You'll never get away
