Yeah I'm gonna leave Texarkana I'm goin' down to Louisiana
I'm gonna try my luck in Baton Rouge
I'm gonna follow ol' Red River down til LI see the lights of town
I ain't gonna get no sleep in Baton Rouge
Baton Rouge Baton Rouge I'm gonna get me some alligator shoes
Baton Rouge Baton Rouge I'm gonna wear 'em out downton Baton Rouge
Oh a Texas girl that broke my heart then she tore my truck apart
I guess I'll get me another in Baton Rouge
Cause I like crawfish I like rice I like girls that treat you nice
Guess I find me one in Baton Rouge
Baton Rouge Baton Rouge...
Yeah I'm gonna learn to walk that walk I'm gonna learn to talk that talk
I'm gonna learn to dance in Baton Rouge
Ain't life just like a cul-de-sac I'm a Texas boy and I'm goin' back
Soon as I catch my breath in Baton Rouge
Yeah Baton Rouge Baton Rouge...
Yeah I'm gonna strut mt stuff in Baton Rouge
Yeah I'm gonna cool my toes in Baton Rouge
