Lights of Lousianne Lyrics


one summer night he'll light a lantern
he'll catch a tiny firefly in a jar
set her dancing on the mantle
like a piece of starsee how the boy lays low
he wants the shiver in her wing
see him hiding in the willow
playing with lightningyou don't know me
I don't know you
and the summer's come again
my oh my, the sparks are flyin'
all over Lousiannethere's lots of fishes in the sea
I swear I'm gonna catch one in my hand
make him dance for me
in the fryin' panyou don't know me
I don't know you
and the summer's come again
my oh my, the fish are flyin'
all over Lousiannein your eyes there's a light

it comes and it goes without a sound
if I hold on tight
it's gonna burn me to the groundyou don't know me
I don't know you
and the summer's come again
my oh my, the sparks are flyin'
all over Lousianne
our lives go by like sparks are flyin'
all over Lousianne

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
