| I spent last night in the arms
|
| Of a girl in Louisiana
|
| And though I’m out on the highway
|
| My thoughts are still with her
|
| Such a strange combination of a woman and a child
|
| Such a strange situation stoppin' every hundred miles
|
| Callin' Baton Rouge
|
| A replay of last night’s events
|
| Roll through my mind
|
| Except a scene or two
|
| Erased by sweet red wine
|
| And I see a truck stop sign ahead
|
| So I change lanes
|
| I need a cup of coffee
|
| And a couple dollars change
|
| 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
|
| I gotta' talk to the girl just one more time
|
| Hello Samantha dear, I hope you’re feelin' fine
|
| And it won’t be long until I’m with you all the time
|
| But until then I’ll spend my money up right down to My last dime
|
| 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
|
| I gotta' talk to the girl just one more time
|
| Callin' Baton Rouge
|
| Sweet Baton Rouge, my Baton Rouge |
