Lucinda Williams - Lafayette lyrics

Oh, my sweet Lafayette, how I'm going to miss you.

You feel so good, Lafayette, now I've come to greet you

Tell all my friends I've come back again

I couldn't stay away, I was gone only a day

But I'm comin' back to my sweet Lafayette

I'm goin' down to Lafayette, I don't care how long I'm gone

It's so hard to leave you, Lafayette, now I know where I belong

When that sweet fiddle sounds and Clifton gets down

That music sounds so good to me, I just might dance until three

And I gotta get back to my sweet Lafayette

Oh, those boys in Lafayette, smilin' so pretty

Those sweet boys in Lafayette, they sure do look good to me

We danced all night long to a sweet Cajun song

Drinkin' and jivin' 'til dawn, I could dance on and on

Doin' a two-step in my sweet Lafayette

Take me back Lafayette, way down on the bayou

I'm your girl, Lafayette, I'm gonna hang around you

Eat that gumbo and rollin' and tumble

And do crazy things every night, soon I'll be feelin' alright

When I get back to my sweet Lafayette

When I get back to my sweet Lafayette
