Rusty & Doug Kershaw - Cajun Joe

Copied!

{Verse 1}
People still talks about Cajun Joe
Cajun Joe was the bully of bayou
He'd fight anything a beast or a man
In bayou waters or on dry land
In bayou waters or on dry land

{Verse 2}
At sixteen years he won a victory
The longest battle fought in history
When Cajun Joe whipped the thibodaux
He'd become the bully of the bayou
He'd become the bully of the bayou

{Chorus}
He was the bully of the bayou, bully of the bayou
Everybody knew he was the bully of the bayou
Many man's tried and many man's died
Cause he could whip 'em with onе hand tied
He could whip 'em with onе hand tied

{Verse 3}
Undefeated at twenty-one
He was a fightin' son of a gun
Had his pick of the Creole girls
But they all thought he could whip the world
They all thought he could whip the world

{Instrumental Break}

{Verse 4}
People still talks about Big Mamou
Where Cajun Joe met his Waterloo
He picked on a little one at his regret
A hundred and twenty pounds soakin' wet
A hundred and twenty pounds soakin' wet

{Verse 5}
Cajun Joe swung a mighty blow
He aimed for the head but he swung too low
Joe got set for the second blow
When the little fella tore into Cajun Joe
You couldn't even recognize the bully of the bayou

{Chorus}
He was the bully of the bayou, bully of the bayou
Everybody knew he was the bully of the bayou
Many man's tried and many man's died
Cause he could whip 'em with one hand tied
He could whip 'em with one hand tied

{Fade Out}
He could whip 'em with one hand tied
He could whip 'em with one hand tied
He could whip 'em with one hand tied
He could whip 'em with one hand tied

The meaning of the song

edit description

"Rusty & Doug Kershaw - Cajun Joe" tells the story of a legendary figure known as Cajun Joe, the bully of the bayou. From a young age, Cajun Joe was a formidable fighter who could take on any opponent, whether man or beast. He gained a reputation for his undefeated record and his ability to easily defeat anyone who crossed his path.

However, Cajun Joe's reign as the bully of the bayou came to an end when he met his match in Big Mamou. In a surprising turn of events, a much smaller opponent managed to defeat Cajun Joe, leaving him unrecognizable and humbled.

The song captures the essence of Cajun Joe's larger-than-life persona and his eventual downfall, showcasing the consequences of his aggressive behavior. With its catchy chorus and lively instrumentation, "Cajun Joe" is a memorable and entertaining tale of a legendary figure in the bayou.
