_ _ _ At birth, Mama, Papa, call little boy Ned Raised him on the bank of the river bed
Houseboat tied to a big tall tree Home for my Mama and my Papa and me
Clock strikes three, Papa jumps to his feet Already Mama's cooking Papa something to eat
Half past it, Papa, he's ready to go He hops in his bureau, headed down the bow
[Ab] They got fishing lines strung across the Louisiana River
Gonna catch a big fish for us to eat They're setting traps in the swamp
Catching everything they can Gonna make a living, he's a Louisiana man
Gonna make a living, he's a Louisiana [Eb] man Muskrat pipes hanging by the dozen
Even got a lady [Bb] make a [Eb] muskrat cousin Got him out of drying in the hot, hot sun
Tomorrow Papa's [Bb] gonna turn him [Eb] into fun _ _ _

_ They call Mama Rita and my Daddy Jack Little baby brother on the floor, that's Max
Brynn and Lynne are the family twins Big brother Ed's on the bow fishing
On the river floats Papa's great big boat That's how my Papa [Bb] goes into [Eb] town
Takes every bit of the night and the day To even reach a [Bb] place for the [Eb] people to [Ab] stay
I can hardly wait until tomorrow comes around That's the day my Papi [Eb] takes the [Ab] first to town
Papi promised me that I could go Even gonna see a cowboy show
I [Eb] see the cowboys and Indians for the first time then
Oh, my Papi gonna go again Papi says, son, we got the lines to run
We'll come back again, but first there's work to be done
[Ab] They got fishing lines strung across the Louisiana River
Gonna catch a big fish for us two We're setting traps in the swamp
Catching everything we can
Gonna make a living, he's a Louisiana man
Gonna make a living, [Eb] he's a Louisiana [Ab] man
Gonna make a living, he's a Louisiana man
Gonna make a [Eb] living, he's a [Ab] Louisiana man _
