Lyrics

Down in Louisiana the sun goes down
Here in Alabama the world turns round
Come the morning after, I lived to tell
Soon you're going to love me Louisiana Belle

Baby we've been living on borrowed time
Maybe you can better the rest of mine
Won't you come runnin to where all is well?
Soon you're going to love me
I'm your Louisiana Belle

Oh no don't let this feeling go
Keep the fire burning back to Louisianne I'll go
Oh and I won't let one more day go by
Keep the fire burning 'neath that Louisiana sky

Mama never told me of days like this
The preacher never said there'd be things I'd miss
The Seer never said I would cast my spell
Soon you're going to love me
I'm your Louisiana Belle

The whiskey in the water is all I see
Thinking 'bout you will get the best of me
You're better than a bottle in ol' Slidell
Soon you're going to love me
Louisiana Belle

Oh no don't let this feeling go
Keep the fire burnin back to Louisianne I'll go
Oh and I won't let one more day go by
Keep the fire burning 'neath that Louisiana sky

I picked up all the pieces and paid my debt
Tore another ticket to Lafayette
Back down on the bayou I know so well
Soon you're going to love me
Louisiana Belle
