Louisiana Blue lyrics by Radney Foster
LOUISIANA BLUEVERSE 1
THIS PAIN IS DEEPER THAN A PONCHA TRAIN
NOW THAT I'M ALONE AGAIN AFTER LOSING YOU
I'M GOING DOWN TO BASIN STREET
TO WHERE THE BROKEN DREAMERS MEET
WHERE MY BROKEN HEART CAN BEAT LOUISIANA BLUE
CHORUS
WHERE THOSE MUDDY BAYOUS RUN JUST AS BLACK AS COCA-COLA
AIN'T NO OTHER PLACE I CAN BE BLUER THAT I KNOW OF
I'M GONNA PACK MY BAGS TURN UP MY COLLAR
PUT ON MY TRAVELLIN' SHOES
GO DOWN TO NEW ORLEANS AND TURN LOUISIANA BLUE
VERSE 2
YOU SHOULD SEE THIS HEART THAT YOU'RE RETURNING ME
NOW IT ONLY YEARNS TO BE ON THE NEXT TRAIN THROUGH
I JUST WANNA DISAPPEAR HEADIN' SOUTH AWAY FROM HERE
RUNNIN' 'TIL I TURN MY TEARS LOUISIANA BLUE
CHORUS
INSTRUMENTAL TURNAROUND
I'M GONNA PACK MY BAGS TURN UP MY COLLAR
PUT ON MY TRAVELLIN' SHOES
GO DOWN TO NEW ORLEANS AND TURN LOUISIANA BLUE
I'M GONNA RAISE THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER CRYIN' OVER YOU
GO DOWN TO NEW ORLEANS AND TURN LOUISIANA BLUE
