CHORUS

I want to hold you tight,
there's a moon out tonight,
there's a moon over Louisianne.
So, Louisianna lady,
won't you come out tonight
stand a lonesome night on end.
Got the stars and the moon
and a sweet Cajun tune
so come over as soon's you can.
We had a long day runnin',
got a good time coming'
'fore we gotta get you home again.

Verse One:

Some love the girls of California!
Some say the best's in Alabam!
Some ravin' 'bout
the belles of Georgia!
I love my girl from Louisianne!

REPEAT CHORUS:

Verse Two:

Some love the girls
when they're unhappy!
Some love the girls
when they are glad!
Comme ci, comme ca,
ma fille est jolie.
J'aime ma fille de Louisianne.
