Jimmy Dean – Cajun Queen lyrics

She kinda breezed into
Town from New Orleans
And said, boys
I'm Big John's Cajun Queen

Now I didn't come here
To argue or waste anbody's time
I just come to get my man
From your dirty old mine
Cause he moves me

Now where you give ups
Where old Queenie's gonna start
Cause I got a powerful
Love in my heart

So just show me the hole
Way down in the ground
And tell the whole wide world
Big John's been found
And he's living

So down in the mine
Without a sign of a light
Old Queenie went a-looking
For John that night

She found him there
At the bottom of the pit
And placed a red hot kiss
On those cold blue lips
He started breathing

She waited a minute
And then she kissed him again
And old John got the power
Of a hundred men

Up he come a-clawing
And a-digging like a mole
And said, come on, Queenie
We're gonna leave this hole
They started walking

Now a roar from the crowd
Greeted this fine pair
As they both walked out
In that cool night air

And up for silence
Went Big John's hand
And the Queen said
I told you I'd get my man
Cause he moves me

You can find them today
They're down in New Orleans
Big Bad John and his Cajun Queen

They're a little bit wrinkled
From the strain of time
But their love's just as strong
As that night in the mine
A hundred and ten grandchildren

Now the moral of this story
Has a real clear omen
Don't you ever underestimate
The power of a woman
