Louisiana where I long to be Louisiana got the best of me
You are the place where I was born mmm
Louisiana keeps me rolling along down the river
And like your native son I will always sing your song
From your streams to your gulf
You're a diamond I found in the rough
I've played those blues in your delta land
Your muddy water is still on my hands
Louisiana cajun moon shining bright
The soul and spirit of Saints and Tiger pride
Sometime your rain falls all night long (They're trying to wash us away)
Louisiana where my baby first cried
Louisiana where my daddy died I will always sing your song
Oh Louisiana I've just got to see
Your sweet magnolias swaying in your trees
Guess you will always be my home (Don't know why I ever roamed)
Oh Louisiana yea you're one of a kind
Just free and wild always on my mind
I will always sing (Louisiana) I will always be singing (Louisiana)
I will always sing... your song...
