Well it was out in california

By the san diego sea

That was when i was taken in

And it left its mark on me

Yeah it nearly drove me crazy

'cause i felt i had no choice

Yeah it seemed that i was only marking time

With all those sailor boys



Louisiana rain is falling at my feet

And 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 a lonely street

And i still can't quite remember

Who helped me to my feet

But thank god for this long neck bottle

The angel's remedy



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 juke box in some

All-nite beanery

Yeah he was eating hard rock candy

And chasing it with tea

You should have seem him lick his lips

When he looked up at me



Louisiana rain is falling at my feet

And 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
