Oak Ridge Boys Miscellaneous Leaving Louisiana In The Broad Daylight (1979) Mary took to running with a traveling man Left her mama crying with her head in her hand Such a sad case so broken hearted She said mama I gotta go I gotta get out of here I gotta get out of town I’m tired of hanging around I gotta roll on between the ditches Just an ordinary story about the way things go around and around nobody knows But the highway goes on forever that old the highway goes on forever Lord she never would have done it if she hadn’t got drunk If she hadn’t started running with a traveling man If she hadn’t started taking those crazy chances She said daughter let me tell you about the traveling kind Every where he’s going such a very short time He’ll be long gone before you know it He’ll be long gone before you know it She said never have I known it when it felt so good Never have I know it when I knew I could Never have I done it when it look so right Leaving Louisiana in the broad daylight This is down in the swampland anything goes It’s alligator bait and the bars don’t close It’s a real thing down in Louisiana Did you ever seen a Cajun when he’s really gone mad When he really got trouble like a daughter gone bad It gets real hot down in Louisiana Stranger better move it or he’s gonna get killed He’s gonna have to get it or the shotgun will It ain’t no time for lengthy speeches There ain’t no time for lengthy speeches She said never could have known it when it felt so good Never could have know it when I knew I could Never would have doubt it when it look so right Leaving Louisiana in the broad daylight She said never have I know it when it felt so good Never have I know it when I knew I could Never have I doubt it when it look so right Leaving Louisiana in the broad daylight Just an ordinary story about the way things go round and around nobody knows But the highway goes on forever that old highway goes on forever |
