Testo Cajun Woman Sandy Denny
Baby that preacher gave you spring
In the window with his finger in the undertakerâs wing
Chorus
Oh, cajun woman
Some people still call you a queen
I donât believe youâre sinking
Look at all the trouble youâve been
He grew up in the bayou with a Bible around his neck
He never loved a woman in the way you would expect
(chorus)
Donât tell him about his father, donât tell him about his name
The gods wonât get to heaven till theyâll crucify his brain
(chorus)
Well, itâs 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 poor
Your mama never told you how lucky you are
(chorus)
