Lyrics
Katie had plans, but there ain't no chance in the bayou
Turned 18 and that's 6 months clean in the bayou
Government came to take them away from the bayou
Said the one's that stay will be washed to their graves with the bayou
So won't you tell me i'm lost when I lie to you
Tell me good thoughts are gonna carry us through
And i'll tell you what i'm gonna do
I'm gonna fight the fire, take it higher sing it till they bring it down to the wire
Shake it off, and go start anew
Katie left home, and made the trek all alone from the bayou
Says Houston's cold, to the summer's that we know in the bayou
But her old man drinks and at night she still thinks of the bayou
Yeah the city's got saved, but they never made the grade in the bayou
So won't you tell me i'm lost when I lie to you
Tell me good thoughts are gonna carry us through
And i'll tell you what i'm gonna do
I'm gonna fight the fire, take it higher sing it till they bring it down to the wire
Shake it off, and go start anew
