lyrics

Riding the 4by down a muddy road
Follow the swamp through the Cypress grove
take right where the gators groan
You'll find an old shack the locals call their home

the Cajun Queen is the place few will know
nobody cares if you come or if you go

People here just drink don't want to know your name
Steel pot boils on an open flame
Cold beer cooler, gotta ask for the shine
Crawdads cooking, you made it just in time

The Cajun queen is the place few will know
nobody cares if you come or if you go

Hearing swamp stories you know aren't quite true
like the one about the witch who got her due
on the back porch swing, you finish your brew
Alligator eyes, staring up at you

The Cajun Queen is the place few will know
Nobody cares if you come or if you go

Last rays of sun, shine through the trees
Stay too late, you won't be able to leave
Ghosts of the swamp, will follow you back
Leave your truck, the witches will attack

The Cajun Queen is the place few will know
Nobody cares if you come or if you go
You can hear the swamp beast howl and moan
Stay too late, and you might not make it home
