Cowboy Mouth - Louisiana Lowdown lyrics

Well my eyelids said four-thirty And the radio clock said six And I was thinking up a reasonable excuse I might have slept til yesterday But in the shape I'm in What's twenty-four hours more or less to lose CHORUS: I've burned up letters and I've burned up souvenirs And left no traces Lord that I was ever here And I won't be Louisiana lowdown and blue Yeah, the phone rings after breakfast, I swallow hard when I hear, "Guess who?" and I say, "I don't know!" and the caller hangs up I think I need a shower But I really want a beer And I remember this dream I had and I laugh to myself CHORUS BRIDGE: I saw a stranger smiling at me yesterday And it scared me almost half to d**h I wanted to hide I wanted to run away from her Instead I closed my eyes and she wasn't there Oh, I was somewhere in the French Quarter In the winter of last year Down in the square, dripped chili on myself When I headed home I heard the sounds Of heaven in my ears Turned and saw a woman singin' about Jesus
