oak ridge boys - leaving louisiana in the broad daylight lyrics
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, 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 n-body 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 say, “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, anything goes
it’s alligator bait 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
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 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”
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”
it’s just an ordinary story ’bout the way things go
’round and around n-body knows
but the highway goes on forever
that ol’ highway rolls on forever
