Home from church now, so let your hair down
It's the lord's favorite day.
There's a dance river tavern, where the drums and fiddles play
So wear your new shoes, your red boots, the dress I can't forget.
Like to watch you dance around me like the rain in Lafayette.

Summers comin', my brain is hummin', said that only you can do
And the way your eyes are smilin' I know mine must be shinin' too
You're my lovely, my only, the one my alouette
Like to watch you dance around me like the rain in Lafayette.

So let the rain fall, can't hurt us at all, get as wet as we can get.
Like to watch you dance around me like the rain in Lafayette.
