Louisiana Blues Lyrics


I'm goin' to Louisiana, baby, behind the sun
I'm goin' to Louisiana, baby, behind the sun
I just found out my trouble's just begun
I'm goin' to New Orleans, get me a mojo hand
I'm goin' to New Orleans, get me a mojo hand
Goin' to show all you women
Show how to treat your man, oh, yeah
If the river was whiskey, I was a diving duck
If the river was whiskey, I was a diving duck
I'd swim to the bottom, drink myself back up
I'd swim to the bottom, drink myself back up
Goin' to Louisiana, Louisiana

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
