Şarkı Sözleri

Ooohwee
Ah yeah
Down south, the banjos cry too,
Everybody whose sayin' hidee hi too,
While the moon beams danced on the Bayou,
That's how rhythm was born
They've praised the mighty forgiver,
They've washed their sins in the river,
Cold water made 'em all shiver,
That's how rhythm was born
Folks came down,
Gathered round that old swiney shore,
Caught the craze and sang his praise,
They all cried why don't you give us some more
Down south, the banjos cry too,
Everybody's singin' hidee hi too,
While the moon beams danced on the Bayou,
That's how rhythm was born

Everybody whose sayin' hidee hi too,
While the moon beams danced on the Bayou,

They've praised the mighty forgiver,
They've washed their sins in the river,
Cold water well it made 'em wanna shiver,

Caught the craze and sang his praise,
And cried, come on, gimme some more
