King Of Zydeco

Well, it's a straight line as the crow flies To a heaven hear on earth And if you make time, it's a cool drive. Head down to the coast If your taste runs to the gumbo, Don't know where to go, Let me introduce you to The King of Zydeco If you're head leaks like a strainer, The sea comes to your door, A strange sound from the juke-joint, A mile just down the road Believe it when you hear it, The sound of a 'rubbing board' board, Let me introduce you to The King of Zydeco Move it over Open up that line Roll it over, Buddy, I'm insane. You wont feel like a stranger, You've found a second home You cant get out of your tree there When the music hits your soul. Bye-Bye 'Big Brother' "Cause I'm going away I wanna listen to the man They call Clifton Cheniere. Feel like a statistic, Feeling shrink-wrapped up too. It's dun-time baby You been to long in school. Head down to the place Near to Thibodoux Let me introduce you to The King of Zydeco Move that semi Buddy, I'm insane. It's now or never I can't touch the brakes. Well, it's a stone's throw from the Bayou And I can see the sign, Shining like a beacon Right on through the night. No more airs and graces, Gotta catch the show, Let me introduce you to The King of Zydeco.
