It was a dream I had a long time ago
|
Louisiana rain comes falling down
|
It was a song I sang a long time ago
|
It was the girl I tried to sing it with
|
And the colors that she wore to bed
|
|
Momma told her not to go
|
Daddy threw the radio
|
Didn't think you'd really care
|
Atchafalaya love affair
|
Louisiana
|
|
He was a bayou boy, he wore the corduroy
|
It was safe to say he lived his life in chains
|
He was the great white hurting
|
She was a bible girl, wasn't known to whirl
|
She was all she ever thought that she could be
|
Maybe just a little bit more tonight for me
|
|
Momma told her not to go
|
Daddy threw the radio
|
Didn't think you'd really care
|
Atchafalaya love affair
|
Louisiana...went a little like this
|
|
It was a dream I had a long time ago
|
Louisiana, Roosevelt, and me
|
Walking backwards in the rain
|
It was a song I sang a long time ago
|
It was the girl I tried to sing it with
|
And the colors that she wore to bed
|
|
Momma told her not to go
|
Daddy threw the radio
|
Didn't think you'd really care
|
Atchafalaya love affair
|
Louisiana love
|
Atchafalaya along with me
|
Louisiana love...
|
It went a little like this
|
