Lyrics

I wanna die
I wanna die
Down south
Louisiana
And the gray evening sky
I wanna die
I don't care how
I'm getting out
Down south
Louisiana
And the lonesome highway sound
Well there's a cajun lady
Down in New
Orleans There's a cajun lady
And I saw her in my dream
Well if I'd held her in my arms, girls
Oh and if
I'd held her in my arms
Our friendly love
Might have kept my heart from harm
But I'm out here on this road, girls
And I'm out here on the road
And I'm just a poor girl
And I ain't got a home
And I wanna die
I don't care how
I'm getting out
Down south
Louisiana
And the lonesome highway sound
Oh I ain't got a home, girls
And I ain't got a home
And it's through this world
I ramble And it's through this world
I roam Well, as through this world
I ramble And as through this world
I roam I'm just a poor girl
And I ain't got a home
And I wanna die
I wanna die
Down south
Louisiana
And the gray evening sky
Well I wanna die
I don't care how
I'm getting out
Down south
Louisiana
And the lonesome highway sound
