(Two, two, one, two, three, four)
By the San Diego sea
That was when I was taken in
And it left its mark on me

Yeah, she nearly drove me crazy
With all those China joys
And I know she really didn't mean a thing
To any of those sailor boys

Louisiana rain is falling at my feet
And I'm noticing a change
As I move down the street
Louisiana rain is soaking through my shoes

I may never be the same
When I reach Baton Rouge
South Carolina put out its arms for me
Right up until everything went black

Somewhere on a lonely street
And I still can't quite remember
Who helped me to my feet
Thank God for a long neck bottle
The angel's remedy

Louisiana rain is falling just like tears
Running down my face
Washing out the years

Louisiana rain is soaking through my shoes
I may never be the same
When I reach Baton Rouge

Well, I never will get over
This English refugee
Singing to the Juke Box in some
All-night Beanery

Yeah, he was eating pills like candy
And chasing them with tea
You should have seem him lick his lips
At old black Molly B

Louisiana rain is falling at my feet
And I'm noticing a change
As I move down the street

Louisiana rain is soaking through my shoes
I may never be the same
When I reach Baton Rouge

Louisiana rain is falling at my feet
And I'm noticing a change
As I move down the street

Louisiana rain is soaking through my shoes
I may never be the same
When I reach Baton Rouge

Louisiana, Louisiana rain
But it's falling just like tears
Running down my face
Washing out the years

Louisiana rain is soaking through my shoes
I may never be the same
When I reach Baton Rouge
