I can't find any fully, correctly transcribed lyrics for the English portion of the lyrics for Zydeco Gris Gris by Beasoleil. I"m not talking about the French lyrics translated. I just want the English lyrics as they are sung on the song.

I see several attempts online, but only two stanzas seem to be correct. These kick off the song, though one transcriber shows them at the bottom of the song:

-------------------------------------------------------
All along the bayou for a thousand miles,
The Zydeco sound is all around,
You drop what you're doing and come on along,
You dance to the music while I sing you my song.

The bayou's hot and known for its heat,
The rattling bones to the Creole beat,
The word is out, cher, you got to go
Move your body to the Zydeco.

-----------------------------------------------------

The rest aren't coming through well on the audio, and I'm having difficulty deciphering all of the words. Looks like the online transcribers were having difficulty too, because what they show is generally not correct.

Ah, I actually had a version saved off from 6 years ago. Here they are, for anyone interested:

All along the bayou for a thousand miles,
The Zydeco sound is all around,
You drop what you’re doing and come on along,
You dance to the music while I sing you my song.

The bayou’s hot and known for its heat,
The rattling bones to the Creole beat,
The word is out, cher, you got to go
Move your body to the Zydeco.

REFRAIN:
The bayou's hot, and it's getting hotter,
Creole folks are gone for more FIRE WATER,
Bend on over, get soaking wet,
You can't cool your boiling blood, NOT YET!
Boys and girls doing their thing,
Mama cast a spell: GRIS GRIS!
All along the black bayou,
The Creoles shout for the ZYDECO!

'Nunya' - great name. We use it a lot.
