|
I spent last night in the arms |
|
Of a girl in Louisiana |
|
And though I'm out on the highway |
|
My thoughts are still with her |
|
Such a strange combination of a woman and a child |
|
Such a strange situation stoppin' every hundred miles |
|
Callin' Baton Rouge |
|
A replay of last night's events |
|
Roll through my mind |
|
Except a scene or two |
|
Erased by sweet red wine |
|
And I see a truck stop sign ahead |
|
So I change lanes |
|
I need a cup of coffee |
|
And a couple dollars change |
|
Callin' Baton Rouge |
|
Operator won't you put me on through |
|
I gotta' send my love down to Baton Rouge |
|
Hurry up won't you put her on the line |
|
I gotta' talk to the girl just one more time |
|
Hello Samantha dear, I hope you're feelin' fine |
|
And it won't be long until I'm with you all the time |
|
But until then I'll spend my money up right down to my last dime |
|
Callin' Baton Rouge |
|
Operator won't you put me on through |
|
I gotta' send my love down to Baton Rouge |
|
Hurry up won't you put her on the line |
|
I gotta' talk to the girl just one more time |
|
Callin' Baton Rouge |
|
Sweet Baton Rouge, my Baton Rouge |
