Gourds – Pine Island Bayou lyrics

[Verse 1]
My poor uncle, Jimmy Turk
He got his house full of water and dirt
In that flood of '94
Pine island bayou, came thru his door, it was

[Chorus]
Pine island bayou, pine island bayou
Pine island, pine island, pine island bayou
Pine island bayou, pine island bayou
Pine island, pine island, pine island bayou

[Verse 2]
Well, in that flood of '94
That devil rain began t'poor
It swelled the banks of the Sabine
Those waters dark and warm and mean, it was

[Chorus]
Pine island bayou, pine island bayou
Pine island, pine island, pine island bayou
Pine island bayou, pine island bayou
Pine island, pine island, pine island bayou

[Verse 3]
When that bayou began to crest
My uncle Jimmy did his best
T'save his family and his home
And to this day you can hear him moan, he moans

[Chorus]
Pine island bayou, pine island bayou
Pine island, pine island, pine island bayou
Pine island bayou, pine island bayou
Pine island, pine island, pine island bayou

[Verse 2]
Well, in that flood of '94
That devil rain began t'poor
It swelled the banks of the Sabine
Those waters dark and warm and mean, it was

[Chorus]
Pine island bayou, pine island bayou
Pine island, pine island, pine island bayou
Pine island bayou, pine island bayou
Pine island, pine island, pine island bayou
