It was one fine March morning, I bid New Adieu
And I the road to Jackson Town, my fortune to renew
I all foreign money, no credit could I gain
Which filled my with a longing for, the Lakes of Ponchartrain

I rode the rods till evening and I me down again
All strangers no friends to me 'til a dark girl towards me came
And I fell in love with the Creole Girl, by the Lakes of

I said "Me pretty Creole Girl, me here's no good,
If it weren't for the alligators, I'd sleep out in the wood"
"You're welcome here stranger, from such sad thoughts refrain"
"For me Mammy welcomes strangers, by the of Ponchartrain"

She took me into her mammy's and treated me right well
The hair upon her shoulders in jet black ringlets
To try and paint beauty, I'm sure i't would be in vain
So handsome was my Creole girl by the of Ponchartrain

I asked her if she'd marry me, she said that could be
For she had got a and he was far at sea
She said that she wait for him and true she would remain
Till he'd return to his Creole girl, on the of Ponchartrain

It's fare thee well, me Creole girl, I'll never see you
never forget your kindness in the cottage by the shore
And at each social gathering, a flowing bowl I'll
And I'll a health to my Creole girl, by the Lakes of Ponchartrain
