Louisiana Lyrics


Louisiana
Come, go away with me
We'll take the highway
I'll see you in betweenI listen to my head
And every word have come
It's been two days without it
The sleeping in the sun, heyCrossing through Tennessee
Watching the sunrise
Thinking about a dream
Well, we'll listen all nightTo the footsteps in the hall
There's thunder and there's lightening
A hundred miles offI got my hands full
All summer long
I got my hands full
I got my hands fullLouisiana
Come, go away with me
Drinking our coffee
Under the canopyNever saw a morning

I slept through half a day
There's thunder and there's lightening
A hundred miles away, heyI got my hands full
Oh, summertime
I got my hands full
I got my hands full

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Duke Ellington ( April 29, 1899 - May 24, 1974) was an American jazz composer, pianist and bandleader, one of the most influential figures in jazz, if not in all American music. Ellington's stay at the Cotton Club has become one of the enduring legends of Jazz. Movies, songs and books have celebrated the orchestra's residency at the club which was located on the second floor of 644 Lexington at the corner of West 142nd Street in the Harlem section of New York City.
