Landreth The wind tonight ain't all that cries Leaves like tears fall outside She knows I'm blowing with the season change Looking at me and I hear her say: Lay, chere, just a little bit longer You'll be gone so long out West Stay, chere, just a little bit longer Do pa** back to Bayou Teche The wheel I turn ain't all that moans Crossing this levee road alone The gravel I bust and the dust I breathe Won't shake her haunting words to me: Lay, chere, just a little bit longer You'll be gone so long out West Stay, chere, just a little bit longer Do pa** back to Bayou Teche The road I'm on ain't all that bends My will is breaking down again The Gulf of Mexico to Monterey Bay Till I turn myself around I'm gonna hear her say: Lay, chere, just a little bit longer You'll be gone so long out West Stay, chere, just a little bit longer Do pa** back to Bayou Teche Lay, chere, just a little bit longer You'll be gone so long out West Stay, chere, just a little bit longer And do pa** back to Bayou Teche
