LOUISIANA
COPYRIGHT2009 WILKINSON/WOOD

I DROVE WEST OF MISSISSIPPI
TWO LANE HIGHWAYS LINED WITH MOSS
TINY TOWNS BREAKING THE SCENERY
I WAS TRYING TO GET LOST
BAREFOOT CHILDREN ON A TIRE SWING
OLD MEN ROCKING IN THEIR CHAIRS
PROBABLY TALKING ABOUT THE WEATHER
OR GOING FISHING SOMEWHERE

(CHORUS)
IN LOUISIANA
WHERE THE SUN SETS LOW
WHERE THE SIMPLE THINGS IN LIFE
CAN BE FOUND ON ANY ROAD
IN LOUISIANA

THERE’S A BAND DOWN IN THE QUARTER
TWO YOUNG LOVERS HOLDING HANDS
STROLLING DOWN BESIDE THE WATER
WHERE THE BARGES ALL ROLL IN
SUNDAY MORNING THERE’S A CHURCH CHOIR
SOUNDS LIKE HEAVEN HERE ON EARTH
WHILE A DRUNKARD SLEEPS ON BOURBON
BOTH A BLESSING AND A CURSE

( CHORUS)
IN LOUISIANA
WHERE THE MUSIC FLOWS
WHERE THE SIMPLE THINGS IN LIFE
CAN BE FOUND ON ANY ROAD
IN LOUISIANA

(BRIDGE)
I DON’T GET TO SEE HER MUCH AS I’D LIKE TO
BUT I’LL ALWAYS BE BOUND TO THE BAYOU
IN LOUISIANA

ON MY WAY BACK HOME I THOUGHT I
SAW THE SHADOW OF A GHOST
TRYING TO WAVE TO ME GOOD-BYE
WHILE I WAS TRYING TO GET LOST

(CHORUS)
IN LOUISIANA
WHERE MY HEART STILL GOES
WHERE THE SIMPLE THINGS IN LIFE
CAN BE FOUND ON ANY ROAD
IN LOUISIANA
