Cajun Woman Lyrics - Fairport Convention

Baby, that preacher gave you his pain 

To ?let the window? on his finger in the undertaker's name 

(Chorus) 

Oh, cajun woman 

Some people still call you a queen 

I don't believe you're sinking 

With all the trouble you've been 

He grew up in the bayou with a Bible round his neck 

He never loved a woman in the way you would expect 

(Chorus) 

Don't tell him by his father, don't tell him by his name 

The dogs won't get to heaven, they'll crucify his brain 

(Chorus) 

Well, it's welcome to the graveyard and welcome to the throne 

Welcome to the orphanage where your family sit and moan 

Welcome to the liquor stand and welcome to the park 

Your mama never told you how lucky you are 

(Chorus)
