    Story Behind the Song
    It's about my youth on the bayous of Michigan. Well, they don't call them that there, but it is a very swampy area in Western Michigan where the wind blows sand upin dunes which bottle up the rivers and creeks into bayou-like areas. No Alligators, but we had alligator snapping turtles!

    Lyrics
    Glad You Come To Visit (on the old bayou)
    © Marc Bristol BMI

    I used to play in the woods by the sassafras tree
    Chasedfrogs in the swamp, couldn’t let ‘em be
    Grandpa’d say “come a fishin’ with me”
    We’d jump in the jeep and we was dirt road free

    Paddle down the river in my uncle’s canoe
    Never have trouble findin’ somethin’ to do
    You got me, and I got you
    Glad you come to visit on the ol’ bayou

    Now me and my cousin like to swim in the lake
    Find a little driftwood, what could we make
    A little baseball, some of Granny’s pancakes
    Chasin’ them squirrels and a catchin’ them snakes

    Paddle down the river in my uncle’s canoe
    Never have trouble findin’ somethin’ to do
    You got me, and I got you
    Glad you come to visit on the ol’ bayou

    Pickin’ berries in the field, tomatoes from the vine
    Eatin’ them catfishes sure tastes fine
    You got yours, and I got mine
    Sittin’ on the porch in the warm sunshine

    Paddle down the river in my uncle’s canoe
    Never have trouble findin’ somethin’ to do
    You got me, and I got you
    Glad you come to visit on the ol’ bayou
