Tom Petty - Louisiana Rain (original) lyrics

Well it was out in california by the san diego sea That was when i was taken in by an aging boardwalk queen Yeah she nearly drove me crazy with all those china toys And i know she really didn't mean a thing to any of those sailor boys Louisiana rain is falling at my feet Baby i'm noticing a change as i move down the street Louisiana rain is soaking through my shoes I may never be the same when i reach baton rouge South carolina put out its arms for me Right up until everything went black somewhere on baker street And it was just some mean old poison, that i took up my nose Thank god for a love that follows the angels and the who*es Louisiana rain is falling just like tears Running down my face, washing out the years Louisiana rain is soaking through my shoes I may never be the same when i reach baton rouge Well i never will get over this english refugee Singing to the jukebox in the all night beanery Yeah he was eating pills like candy and chasing them with tea You should have seen him lick his lips, that old black muddied beak Louisiana rain is falling at my feet Baby i'm noticing the change as i move down the street Louisiana rain is soaking through my shoes I may never be the same when i reach baton rouge Louisiana rain is falling just like tears Running down my face, washing out the years Louisiana rain is soaking through my shoes I may never be the same when i reach baton rouge
