Virginia Coalition - Atchafalya Love Affair lyrics

It was a dream I had a long time ago Louisiana rain comes falling down It was a song I sang a long time ago It was the girl I tried to sing it with And the colors that she wore to bed Momma told her not to go Daddy threw the radio Didn't think you'd really care Atchafalaya love affair Louisiana He was a bayou boy, he wore the corduroy It was safe to say he lived his life in chains He was the great white hurting She was a bible girl, wasn't known to whirl She was all she ever thought that she could be Maybe just a little bit more tonight for me Momma told her not to go Daddy threw the radio Didn't think you'd really care Atchafalaya love affair Louisiana...went a little like this It was a dream I had a long time ago Louisiana, Roosevelt, and me Walking backwards in the rain It was a song I sang a long time ago It was the girl I tried to sing it with And the colors that she wore to bed Momma told her not to go Daddy threw the radio Didn't think you'd really care Atchafalaya love affair Louisiana love Atchafalaya along with me Louisiana love... It went a little like this
