Rosianna |
| You know I’d chase the roll around Louisiana |
| 'Til I finally got her down in New Orleans |
| I could not be told nobody keep a hold on Rosianna |
| So I guess I’d better show 'em what I mean |
| The man don’t live in Louisiana |
| To make me give up my Rosianna |
| Thought I’d haul back in Alabama |
| Ain’t no ball and chain about her |
| They can’t keep this boy from tryin' |
| I’m gonna bring her back if I have to drag her all the way home |
| Yes I will |
| In his big cold hand he my Rosianna |
| Got me sent up to the pen in Baton Rogue |
| I caught him lyin' down with a ball peen hammer |
| Yes I did |
| When I left poor Hank he never got up again |
| The man don’t live in Louisiana |
| To make me give up my Rosianna |
| Thought I’d haul back in Alabama |
| Ain’t no ball and chain about hr |
| They can’t keep this boy from tryin' |
| I’m gonna bring her back if I have to drag hr all the way home |
| Yes I will |
| So let the fact be known any mother’s grown boy thinks I’m funny |
| Is gonna find himself a knot just like poor Hank |
| Yes he will |
| 'Cause the mother don’t live in Louisiana |
| To make me give up my Rosianna |
| Thought I’d haul back in Alabama |
| Ain’t no ball and chain about her |
| They can’t keep this boy from tryin' |
| I’m gonna bring her back if I have to drag her all the way home |
| Yes I will |
