Kyle Park - Louisiana Boy lyrics

Well I called in sick, I had to get away I was going crazy out here in L.A. I needed to go where the crawfish flow like wine I packed my things and headed down the road Took a litle more than a weekly load I'm going to Louisiana for a long, long time One more day and I'll be there by dawn I can't wait to see that state 'Cause partner that's where I'm from CHORUS I'm a Louisiana boy grown up on the Quarter I'm used to the people and I even drink the water Been shuckin' them oysters since I was just a kid Trapping alligators like my granddad did I moved to the city where the girls looked pretty But now I'm back to stay I'm a Louisiana boy with a pocket full of money And a love for the Delta Bay Well it used to be where everybody knew me I was drinking liquor when I was thirteen They called me the Cajun Kid everywhere I'd go But when I moved away I left it all behind With my overalls and a gator-skin tie I swore that I'd never come back to the life I know But the city life is just too different for me I could live there again, but I'd just come home To keep on living downstream CHORUS
