Louisiana Rain
Well it was out in california by the san diego sea
That was when I was taken in by an aging boardwalk queen
Yeah she nearly drove me crazy with all those china toys
And I know she really didn’t mean a thing to any of those sailor boys

Louisiana rain is falling at my feet
Baby I’m noticing a change as I move down the street
Louisiana rain is soaking through my shoes
I may never be the same when I reach baton rouge

South carolina put out it’s arms for me
Right up until everything went black somewhere on baker street
And it was just some mean old poison, that I took up my nose
Thank God for a love that follows the angels and the whores

Louisiana rain is falling just like tears
Running down my face, washing out the years
Louisiana rain is soaking through my shoes
I may never be the same when I reach baton rouge

Well I never will get over this english refugee
Singing to the jukebox in the all night beanery
Yeah he was eating pills like candy and chasing them with tea
You should have seen him lick his lips, that old black muddied beak

Louisiana rain is falling at my feet
Baby I’m noticing the change as I move down the street
Louisiana rain is soaking through my shoes
I may never be the same when I reach baton rouge

Louisiana rain is falling just like tears
Running down my face, washing out the years
Louisiana rain is soaking through my shoes
I may never be the same when I reach baton rouge
