Middle Johnson & The Middle Johnson Orchestra - Those Bayou Summers (Cajun Viking Records)

Back in the 1960’s through the early 70’s, Middle Johnson and his orchestra toured all over the world. Not bad for a guy who grew up in Prairie Ronde, Louisiana. Ever since he was little, Middle had the gift of music and soul, and everyone knew it, because his grandmother always told them so.

Lyrics [Chorus] Take me back to the days {yeah} Take me back to the days of those bayou summers Take me back to the days When we were in love {Oh, yeah!} [Verse 1] We were just babies Playing all day long Never had no worries Life was just a song You were my best friend We were never apart And as we grew older Your love filled my heart [Chorus] Take me back to the days {yeah} Take me back to the days of those bayou summers Take me back to the days When we were in love {Oh, yeah!} [Verse 2] Time made us older And you moved away To carve out your fortune On the path that you laid My heart was so lonely And lost without you But I carried on The very best I could do [Chorus] Take me back to the days {yeah} Take me back to the days of those bayou summers Take me back to the days When we were in love {Oh, yeah!} [Saxophone Solo] [Chorus] Take me back to the days {yeah} Take me back to the days of those bayou summers Take me back to the days When we were in love {Oh, yeah!} [Verse 3] The years are behind us And very few lay before I’d give my last breath Just to see you once more For now, I’ll just hang on To these memories And pray that you’re somewhere Thinking of me [Chorus] Take me back to the days {yeah} Take me back to the days of those bayou summers Take me back to the days When we were in love {Oh, yeah!} [Fade Out]
