Charley Pride - Louisiana Man Lyrics

Send "Louisiana Man" ringtone to your cell

At first mom and papa called their little boy Ned

They raise him on the banks of the river bed. A

Houseboat tied to a big tall tree a home for my

Papa and my mama and me. The clock strikes three

Papa jumps to his feet already mama's cookin' papa

Somethin' to eat. At half past papa he's ready to

Go he jumps in his piro headed down the bayou He's

Got fishin' lines strung across the Louisiana

River Gotta catch a big fish for us to eat. Setting traps

In the swamp catchin' everythin' he can

Gotta make a livin' he's a Louisiana man gotta

Make a livin' he's a Louisiana man. Muskart hides a

Hangin' by the dozen even got a lady make a

Muskart glove. got'em drying in the hot

Hot sun tomorrow papa's gonna turn them into mon.

Well they call mama Rita and my daddy Jack my

Little baby brother on the floor that's Mac. Riz

And Liz are the family twins big brother Ed's on

The bayou fishin'. On the river float papa's great

Big boat that's how my papa goes into town. He

Takes every bit of the night and day to even reach

A place where the people stay. I can hardly

Wait till tomorrow comes around. That's the day my

Papa takes the furs to town. Papa promised me that

I could go even let me see a cowboy show I saw the

Cowboys and Injuns for the first time then told

My papa gotta go again. Papa said son we got

Lines to run we'll come back again there's work to

Be done He's got fishin' lines...
