Going Back To Louisiana - Delbert McClinton

Well it’s three o’clock in the mornin' ya’ll

Oh, and I’m bidin' my time

Give me two more, Mr. Waiter

You know I got a whole lot on my mind

I’m going back to Louisiana

To that girl I left behind

I been to Memphis, baby, I been to Kansas City, too

Never met a woman who could love me like you do

Going back to Louisiana

To that girl I left behind

Yeah, she’s my kind of woman, ya’ll

She’s just my size

She knocks me out the way she looks me in the eye

Going back to Louisiana

To that girl I left behind

She used to live in Shreveport, but then she moved

Bet you ten to one she’s gone to Baton Rouge

I’m gonna look her up, if you know what I mean

If I have to go as far as New Orleans

Been fine talking to ya honey, but

You know that I

Got to find my baby, got to move on down the line

Back to Louisiana

To that girl I left behind

She used to live in Shreveport, but then she moved

I bet you ten to one she’s gone to Baton Rouge

I’m gonna look her up, if you know what I mean

If I have to go as far as New Orleans

Been fine talkin' to ya, honey, but

You know that I

Got to find my baby, and move on down the line

Going back to Louisiana

To that girl I left behind

Oh, yeah, I’m going back to Louisiana

To that girl I left behind
