I’m just a a Swire from Grand Chenier
I drink my beer and moonshine too
I love de rain. And Mary Jane.
I like to sang and play de guitar and dat’s the troot.

Got me a Camp Out in da swamp
I get out dere whenever I want
I hunt at night with da big spot light
The game wardon tole me dat it was ok until I get caught

I’m just a a Swire from Grand Chenier
I drink my beer and moonshine too
I love de rain. And Mary Jane.
I like to sang and play de guitar and dat’s the troot.

I shoot dem duck out of my truck
I brang my dog. She brang me luck.
And den we go home. Back to duh camp.
And eat some gumbo jumbalie till I get da cramp.

I’m just a a Swire from Grand Chenier

Repeat myself..
I like to sang and play de guitar and dat’s the troot.
