Lord, Mary took to running with a travelin' man Left her momma crying with her head in her hands Such a sad case, so broken hearted
She say momma, I got to go, I gotta get outta here I gotta get out of town; I'm tired of hanging around I gotta roll on between the ditches
It's just an ordinary story 'bout the way things go Round and around nobody knows, but the highway Goes on forever, that 'ol highway rolls on forever
Lord she never would've done it if she hadn't got drunk If she hadn't started running with a travelin' man If she hadn't started taking those crazy chances
She said daughter, let me tell you 'bout the travelin' kind Everywhere he's goin' such a very short time He'll be long gone before you know it He'll be long gone before you know it
She say never have I known it when it felt so good Never have I knew it when I knew I could Never have I done it when it looked so right Leaving Louisiana in the broad daylight
This is down in the swampland, where anything goes It's Alligator Day and the bars don't close It's the real thing down in Louisiana
Did you ever see a cajun when he really got mad When he really got trouble like a daughter gone bad It gets real hot down in Louisiana
Now the stranger better move it or he's gonna get killed He's gonna have to get it or a shotgun will It ain't no time for lengthy speeches There ain't no time for lengthy speeches
She said never have I know it when it felt so good Never have I knew it when I knew I could Never have I done it when it looked so right Leaving Louisiana in the broad daylight
She said never have I know it when it felt so good Never have I knew it when I knew I could Never have I done it when it looked so right Leaving Louisiana in the broad daylight
It's just an ordinary story 'bout the way things go Round and around nobody knows, but the highway goes on forever There ain't no way to stop the waterTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
