Louisiana Lyrics

Oh, if I ever make it, baby, I'll be long
gone.

Oh, the captain said,"Hurry, hurry,"
Lord,
Oh, and the sergeant said,"Run."
Oh, if I had my 38/40 I wouldn't do
either one.
Woo, I'm going down in Louisiana, oh,
don't you want to go,
Woo, I'm goin' down in Louisiana,
don't you want to go.
Wo, you look for me in Louisiana, oh,
I'll be long gone. (Twice)
Oh, you can tell everybody that I'll be
gone,
Oh, I'll be by to see you 'fore the summer
gone.
Oh, I might be in a hurry, I can't stay
very long.
