A Little Louisiana - Jesse Winchester

It’s a pretty good way from here to there

And lying on the loose everywhere

You put your foot in a pile of blues

And if I may, I will tell you what you do

Take a little Louisiana

Take a little Louisiana

Take a little Louisiana wit ya everywhere you go

Well who knows what lies around the bend

It could be good but then again

It could be empty, cold, and bare

Like I say you better be prepared

Take a little Louisiana

Take a little Louisiana

Take a little Louisiana wit ya everywhere you go

Keep it kind a handy

Cause you don’t ever know

One day you may really need it

You can see the writing on the wall

All you got to do it read it

Well the days are few and full of woe

At least the bible tells me so

So get your lovin' while you can

It’s always good to have on hand

Take a little Louisiana

Take a little Louisiana

Take a little Louisiana wit ya everywhere you go

Well keep it kind a handy

You don’t ever know

One day you may really need it

You can see the writing on the wall

All you got to do it read it

Yeah read it

Take a little Louisiana

Take a little Louisiana

Take a little Louisiana wit ya everywhere you go

Take a little Louisiana

Take a little Louisiana

Take a little Louisiana wit ya everywhere you go
