Tom Johnston

I think back to the time
When I first saw your face
You were walkin across the delta
To your cold and lonely place
You knowI took you for a small girl
Really not quite seventeen
OhLordbut I was wrongoh so wrong
You re like a woman I ve never seen

Dark eyed Cajun woman
Where are you comin from
Your soul is in the back woods
They say you never had a home
But I m gonna know you better
If it takes all night and day
Dark eyed Cajun woman
You ll never get awaynono

Now the evenin is blowin
I hear your voice most everywhere
Your coldblack eyes
They are dancin in the starlight
Warmin the cold night air
It s so beautifulyou know I have to say
Dark eyed Cajun woman
You ll never get away
