When the sun goes down
And there ain't nobody else around
And I'm stuck here in this big old lonely town
I got the Louisiana Blues

When the shadows fall
And that old cajun country starts to call
I want to beat my head against the wall
I got the Louisiana Blues

Bayous in my memories
Magnolias on the evening breeze
I pray the good Lord will hear my plea
And let me be back there again
When I close my eyes
I see a full moon in a southern sky
Then I wake up and I realize
I got the Louisiana Blues

Well there's bayous in my memories
Magnolias on the evening breeze
I pray the good Lord will hear my plea
And let me be back there again
When I close my eyes
I see a full moon in a southern sky
Then I wake up and I realize
I got the Louisiana Blues
Got the Louisiana Blues
