Leaving Louisiana In The Broad Daylight
Recorded by the Oak Ridge Boys
Written by Rodney Crowell and Donavan Cowart

C
Mary took to running with a traveling man

Left her momma crying with her head in her hands
F C
Such a sad case so broken hearted

She said momma I got to go I gotta get out of here

I gotta get out of town I'm tired of hanging around
F C
I gotta roll on between the ditches


It's just an ordinary story bout the way things go

Round and round nobody knows
F C
But the highway goes on forever
F C
That old highway rolls 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
F C
If she hadn't started taking those crazy chances

She said daughter let me tell you bout the traveling kind

Everywhere he's going such a very short time
F C
He'll be long gone before you know it
F C
He'll be long gone before you know it

Am G7
She said never have I known it when it felt so good
F C
Never have I knew it when I knew I could
Am G7
Never have I done it when it looked so right
F
Leaving Louisiana in the broad daylight


This is down in the swampland anything goes

It's alligator bait and the bars don't close
F C
It's the real thing down in Louisiana

Did you ever see a Cajun when he really got mad

When he really got trouble like a daughter gone bad
F C
It gets real hot down in Louisiana


The stranger better move it or he's gonna get killed

He's gonna have to get it or a shotgun will
F C
It ain't no time for lengthy speeches
F C
There ain't no time for lengthy speeches

Repeat #4 x2

Repeat #2
