Lyrics Dark Eyed Cajun Woman

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 know, I took you for a small girl,
really not quite seventeen,
oh, Lord but I was wrong, oh, 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 backwoods,
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 a - way, no, no.
Never get away.

Now the evenin' breeze is blowin',
I hear your voice most everywhere.
Your cold, black eyes,
they are dancin' in the starlight,
warmin' the cold night air.
It's so beautiful, you know I have to say,
dark eyed Cajun woman, you'll never get away.
Never get away.

Now the evenin' breeze is blowin',
I hear your voice most everywhere.
Your cold, black eyes, they are dancin' in the starlight,
warmin' the cold night air.
It's so beautiful, you know I gotta to say,
dark eyed Cajun woman, you'll never get away.
Never get away.
