Alabama - Red River lyrics

(Bud McGuire/George Pearce)

I remember campin' all night

Down by the river's edge

Skinny dippin' in the bright moonlight

Divin' off a ledge

Skippin' rocks across the water

Fishin' on an old trout line

Giggin' frogs 'til the early mornin'

Smokin' dried crossvine

Take me back down where the Red River rolls

Send me back to Louisianne

Take me back down where the white water flows

To the Cajun promised land

Give me my line and my old pirogue

Get me back as fast as you can

Take me back home where the Red River rolls

Take me back home where the Red River rolls

Floatin' down the river on a patched up inner tube

Eatin' dinner on the ground

Made of fresh caught catfish stew

Lay wake at night

When I hear a wildcat scream

Tellin' tales by campfire light

About the girls in our dreams

Take me back home where the Red River rolls

Send me back to Louisianne

Take me back down where the white water flows

To the Cajun promised land

Give me my line and my old pirogue

Get me back as fast as you can

Take me back home where the Red River rolls

Take me back home where the Red River rolls

Take me back home where the Red River rolls

Send me back to Louisianne

Take me back down where the white water flows

To the Cajun promised land

Give me my line and my old pirogue

Get me back as fast as you can

Take me back home where the Red River rolls

Take me back home where the Red River rolls
