Radney Foster - Louisiana Blue lyrics

This pain is deeper than the Ponchartrain

Now that I'm alone again after losing you

I'm going down to Basin Street

Where the broken dreamers meet

Where my broken heart can beat Louisiana blue.

(Where) those muddy bayous run hust as black as Coca Cola

Ain't no other place I can be bluer that I know of

Gonna pack my bags, turn up my collar, put on my travelin' shoes

Go down to New Orleans and turn Louisiana blue.

You should see this heart that you returned to me

Now it only yearns to be on the next train through

I just want to disappear heading south away from here

Running 'til I turn my tears Louisiana blue.

(Where) those muddy bayous run hust as black as Coca Cola

Ain't no other place I can be bluer that I know of

Gonna pack my bags, turn up my collar, put on my travelin' shoes

Go down to New Orleans and turn Louisiana blue.

I'm gonna pack my bags, turn up my collar, put on my travelin' shoes

Go down to New Orleans and turn Louisiana blue

I'm gonna raise the Mississippi River crying over you

Go down to New Orleans and turn Louisiana blue...
