Callin' Baton Rouge
Recorded by Garth Brooks
Written by Dennis Linde

Am           G7                     F             C
I spent last night in the arms of a girl in Louisiana
    G7                    C          F                       G7
And though I'm out on the highway my thoughts are still with her
Am                  G7          F
Such a strange combination of a woman and a child
G7             C                  F             G7
Such a strange situation stoppin' every hundred miles 
              C
Callin' Baton Rouge

  Am        G7           F                       C
A replay of last night's events rolls through my mind
G7       C            F                   G7
Except a scene or two erased by sweet red wine
Am          G7              F                 C
And I see a truck stop sign ahead so I change lanes
G7              C            F              G7
I need a cup of coffee and a couple dollars change 
              C
Callin' Baton Rouge


Operator won't you put me on through

I gotta send my love down to Baton Rouge

Hurry up won't you put her on the line
                                       F
I gotta talk to the girl just one more time

C                     Am
Hello Samantha dear I hope you're feelin' fine
       C        G7             Am               G7
And it won't be long until I'm with you all the time
    F                        G7             C               F
But until then I'll spend my money up right down to my last dime
   G7            C
Oh callin' Baton Rouge

Repeat #3

      G7          C     Am
Oh oh oh in Baton Rouge 
G7          F     Am  F
Sweet Baton Rouge 
         Am    G7
My Baton Rouge
F          C
Yeah oh oh oh oh
