I remember campin' all night
  Down by the river's edge
  Skinny dippin' in the bright moonlight
  Divin' off a ledge
  Skippin' rocks across the water
  Fishin' on an old trout line
  Giggin' frogs 'til the early mornin'
  Smokin' dried crossvine
  
  Take me back down where the Red River rolls
  Send me back to Louisianne
  Take me back down where the white water flows
  To the Cajun promised land
  Give me my line and my old pirogue
  Get me back as fast as you can
  Take me back home where the Red River rolls
  Take me back home where the Red River rolls
  
  Floatin' down the river on a patched up inner tube
  Eatin' dinner on the ground
  Made of fresh caught catfish stew
  Lay wake at night
  When I hear a wildcat scream
  Tellin' tales by campfire light
  About the girls in our dreams
  
  Take me back home where the Red River rolls
  Send me back to Louisianne
  Take me back down where the white water flows
  To the Cajun promised land
  Give me my line and my old pirogue
  Get me back as fast as you can
  Take me back home where the Red River rolls
  Take me back home where the Red River rolls
  
  Take me back home where the Red River rolls
  Send me back to Louisianne
  Take me back down where the white water flows
  To the Cajun promised land
  Give me my line and my old pirogue
  Get me back as fast as you can
  Take me back home where the Red River rolls
  Take me back home where the Red River rolls
