Swamp Fever

[Verse] Down in the bayou where the cypress grow Louisiana dreams Where the wild things roam Swampy waters Murky and thick Welcome to the land of the gators Take your pick [Verse] Muddy Mississippi Running deep and wide Creeping through the Delta With a rebel stride Cajun country The heartbeat of the South Where the juke joints scream and the gators pounce [Chorus] Swamp fever Running through my veins Louisiana nights drenched in hurricane rain Gators lurking Danger at every turn In this Cajun land You live and you learn [Verse] Spanish moss hanging, draped like lace Whispers secrets of this wild place Moonlit dances, shadows sway In the heart of night, this swamp holds sway Guitar strings twang, echoing through the trees As the spirits of the bayou start to tease With every chord, the night comes alive [Chorus] Swamp fever Running through my veins Louisiana nights drenched in hurricane rain Gators lurking Danger at every turn In this Cajun land You live and you learn
