- Bayou Country by Gritz from the album Country Funk 1969 - 1975
Released 2013-07-05 on Light In The Attic
What in the hell is country funk you ask? The answer is a complicated one, in part due to the fact that Country Funk is an inherently defiant genre, escaping all efforts at easy categorization. The style encompasses the elation of gospel with the sexual thrust of the blues, country hoedown harmony with inner city grit. It is alternately playful and melancholic, slow jammin', and booty shakin'. It is both studio slick and barroom raw. And while these all may seem unlikely combinations at first glance, upon close listen, it all makes sweet sense. Light In The Attic presents ...

This is one of the best songs I've ever heard.
Bayou Country
Gritz
I was born in Louisiana on the Bayou Manchac,
Papa was a trapper from Napoleonville.
Mama was a dark eyed Cajun woman,
If I'd listened to my mama I'd be there still.
Took my schoolin' down in Morgan City,
Used to go to dances in Abbeyville.
Fell in love with a lady from New Orleans,
Hadn't been for her I'd be there still.
Want my, Bayou Country,
Smell of magnolia's bring you to your knees.
Fais do do's and Cajun women,
Spanish moss hangin' from the big oak trees.
Traveled back and forth across this country,
Met a lot of people and I made a lot of friends.
Got the feelin' of the swamp land runnin' in my blood,
Goin back home but I don't know when.
California's boilin', detroits burnin',
Whole lot of trouble in Chicago town.
Nothin' very pretty bout New York City,
Mississippi take me back to higher ground.
Well I gotta get back to the Bayou Country,
Smell of magnolia's bring you to your knees.
Fais do do's and Cajun women,
Spanish moss hangin' from the big oak trees.
Want my, bayou country!
This song hits so hard with the windows down at about 42mph…. Crank it to 11 and take another hit…
