Louisiana Boy
Well I called in sick I had to get away
I was goin' crazy out here in L.A
I need to go where the crawfish flowed like wine
Well I packed up my things and headed down the road
Took a little more than a weekly load
I'm goin' to Louisiana for a long, long time
One more day and I'll be there by dawn
I can't wait to see that state 'cause partner that's where I'm from
I'm a Louisiana boy grew up on the corner
I'm used to the people and I even drink the water
Been shucking them oysters since I was just a kid
Trapping alligators like my grandad did
I moved to the city where the girls looked pretty
But now I'm back to stay
I'm a Louisiana boy with a pocket full of money
And a love for the delta bay
Well it used to be where everybody knew me
I was drinking liquor when I was thirteen
They called me the Cajun kid everywhere I'd go
But when I moved away I left it all behind
With my overalls and my gator skin tie
I swore that I'd never come back to the life I'd known
But the city life was just too different for me
I could move away but I'd just come back to keep on living down stream
I'm a Louisiana boy grew up on the corner
I'm used to the people and I even drink the water
Been shucking them oysters since I was just a kid
Trapping alligators like my grandad did
I moved to the city where the girls looked pretty
But now I'm back to stay
I'm a Louisiana boy with a pocket full of money
And a love for the delta bay
One more day and I'll be there by dawn
I can't wait to see that state 'cause partner that's where I'm from
I'm a Louisiana boy grew up on the corner
I'm used to the people and I even drink the water
Been shucking them oysters since I was just a kid
Trapping alligators like my grandad did
I moved to the city where the girls looked pretty
But now I'm back to stay
I'm a Louisiana boy with a pocket full of money
And a love for the delta bay
Yes I'm a Louisiana boy with a pocket full of money
And a love for the delta bay
All right
I was goin' crazy out here in L.A
I need to go where the crawfish flowed like wine
Well I packed up my things and headed down the road
Took a little more than a weekly load
I'm goin' to Louisiana for a long, long time
One more day and I'll be there by dawn
I can't wait to see that state 'cause partner that's where I'm from
I'm a Louisiana boy grew up on the corner
I'm used to the people and I even drink the water
Been shucking them oysters since I was just a kid
Trapping alligators like my grandad did
I moved to the city where the girls looked pretty
But now I'm back to stay
I'm a Louisiana boy with a pocket full of money
And a love for the delta bay
Well it used to be where everybody knew me
I was drinking liquor when I was thirteen
They called me the Cajun kid everywhere I'd go
But when I moved away I left it all behind
With my overalls and my gator skin tie
I swore that I'd never come back to the life I'd known
But the city life was just too different for me
I could move away but I'd just come back to keep on living down stream
I'm a Louisiana boy grew up on the corner
I'm used to the people and I even drink the water
Been shucking them oysters since I was just a kid
Trapping alligators like my grandad did
I moved to the city where the girls looked pretty
But now I'm back to stay
I'm a Louisiana boy with a pocket full of money
And a love for the delta bay
One more day and I'll be there by dawn
I can't wait to see that state 'cause partner that's where I'm from
I'm a Louisiana boy grew up on the corner
I'm used to the people and I even drink the water
Been shucking them oysters since I was just a kid
Trapping alligators like my grandad did
I moved to the city where the girls looked pretty
But now I'm back to stay
I'm a Louisiana boy with a pocket full of money
And a love for the delta bay
Yes I'm a Louisiana boy with a pocket full of money
And a love for the delta bay
All right
