Sweet Louisiana Lyrics
Well I thought I’d go out to Tulsa
To ride in a rodeo
The ripping’s a right sure would be nice
Back on the Mississippi River flows
[chorus]
And it a long way back to Pittsburgh
Mississippi River’s muddy and wide
But he knows he’s right back sweet sweet Louisiana waitin’ on the other side
Well there a lot of room up in Canada
Where a man catch his breath
But the men are bold and the river near cold and you damn near freeze to death
[chorus]
There’s pretty girls in Kansas city
And a man can have a ball
But the women in walky-talk Paris
Drive a young man up the wall
[chorus]
Well I thought I’d go out to Tulsa
To ride in a rodeo
The ripping’s a right sure would be nice
Back on the Mississippi River flows
[chorus]
But he knows he’s right back sweet sweet Louisiana waitin’ on the other side
To ride in a rodeo
The ripping’s a right sure would be nice
Back on the Mississippi River flows
And it a long way back to Pittsburgh
Mississippi River’s muddy and wide
But he knows he’s right back sweet sweet Louisiana waitin’ on the other side
Where a man catch his breath
But the men are bold and the river near cold and you damn near freeze to death
And a man can have a ball
But the women in walky-talk Paris
Drive a young man up the wall
To ride in a rodeo
The ripping’s a right sure would be nice
Back on the Mississippi River flows
But he knows he’s right back sweet sweet Louisiana waitin’ on the other side
