Lyrics
A Good idea 'til your will is due Is go out to that place on the Tortous Bayou Maybe get lucky, maybe get shot Couldn't be half the trouble I got Tortous Bayou, turn around Tortous Bayou, turn around It's just another night with the misses and me Fittin' on the couch watching court T.V Let me tell you something can turn it real If you ever get thinking it's a done deal Tortous Bayou, Turn around Get your big feet up off the ground Tortous Bayou, turn around Well if that's a good time, now catch a ride to town She comes from the land of the Bodark tree Scott's Irish and Cherokee She comes down here when the north blows She don't care for the ice and snow Tortous Bayou, Turn around Get your big feet up off the ground Tortous Bayou, turn around Well if that's a good time, now catch a ride to town Take my hand Oklahoma Jane One little mess wouldn't hurt a thing Now it's noon, I'm rolling up the drive Now I don't even got a decent light Letting everybody getting their way sometimes I was looking at every woman that might I was looking at their faces, looking at their parts Looking through the whole in the bottom of my heart Tortous Bayou, turn around Well if that's a good time, now catch a ride to town Tortous Bayou, turn around Tortous Bayou, turn around
