[Verse 1] I remember camping all night down by the rivers edge Skinny dipping in the bright moonlight, diving off the ledge Skipping rocks across the water, fishing on an old trot line Gigging frogs til the early morning, smoking dried cross vine [Chorus] Take me back down where the Red River rolls Send me back to Lousianne Take me back down where the white water flows To the Cajun promised land Give me my line and my old pirogue Get me back as fast as you can Take me back home where the Red River rolls Take me back down where the Red River rolls [Verse 2] Floating down the river on a patched up inner tube Eating dinner on the ground, made of fresh caught catfish stew Lay awake at night when I hear a wildcat scream Telling tales around the campfire light about the girls in our dreams [Chorus] Send me back down where the Red River rolls Send me back to Lousianne Take me back down where the white water flows To the Cajun promised land Give me my line and my old pirogue Get me back as fast as you can Take me back home where the Red River rolls Take me back down where the Red River rolls [Instrumental Break] [Chorus] Take me back down where the Red River rolls Send me back to Lousianne Take me back down where the white water flows To the Cajun promised land Give me my line and my old pirogue Get me back as fast as you can Take me back home where the Red River rolls Take me back down where the Red River rolls
