Lyrics:

(Tom Johnston) I think back to the time When I first saw your face You were walkin' across the delta To your cold and lonely place You know, I took you for a small girl Really not quite seventeen Oh, Lord, but I was wrong, oh so wrong You're like a woman I've never seen Dark eyed Cajun woman Where are you comin' from Your soul is in the back woods They say you never had a home But I'm gonna know you better If it takes all night and day Dark eyed Cajun woman You'll never get away, no, no Now the evenin' is blowin' I hear your voice most everywhere Your cold, black eyes They are dancin' in the starlight Warmin' the cold night air It's so beautiful, you know I have to say Dark eyed Cajun woman You'll never get away
