Bayou Bum chords by Johnny Paycheck
Verse 1
G
D
G
Well, I fish all day from my boat,
that's the way I make my livin'
I got an old greasy dog
D
and a river boat for my home
G
I'm as common as a steamboat
D
G
on the Mississippi River
Yeah, I'm a bio -bum
D
G
and what a little bit of God's my own
Yeah, I'm a bio -bum
D
G
and I wouldn't work if I could
Yeah, I'm a scavenger of the river
D
and it treats me good
G
Dreamin' and a -wishin',
fightin' and a -fishin'
That's all I've ever done
You can do as you please,
D
but as for me, I'm gonna say bye -bye,
G
D
G
D
Oompa Loompa
G
There ain't a thing on the
Mississippi River I ain't seen
Yeah, I fought my way from
D
Memphis to New Orleans
G
Yeah, I've had people say
I'm as no good as they come
But words don't hurt
D
G
the likes of a bio -bomb
Well, I've had many chances to marry,
but I've turned them down
I've left the pretty little girls a -cryin'
D
in many waters from town
G
And if I die tonight,
you can say I've had my fun
Yeah, lovin' and livin' the
D
G
life of a bio -bum
Yeah, I'm a bio -bomb
and I wouldn't work if I could
I'm a scavenger of the river
D
and it treats me good
G
Dreamin' and a -wishin',
fightin' and a -fishin'
That's all I've ever done
You can do as you please
But as for me,
D
G
I'm gonna stay a bio -bomb you
