《Louisiana Man》歌词

[00:00:01] Louisiana Man - Doug Kershaw

[00:00:10] Well, at birth mom and papa called their little boy Ned

[00:00:14] Raised him on the banks of a river bed

[00:00:18] On a houseboat tied to a big tall tree

[00:00:22] A home for my papa and my mama and me

[00:00:26] The clock strikes three and papa jumps to his feet

[00:00:29] Already mama's cooking papa something to eat

[00:00:33] At half past, papa he's ready to go

[00:00:37] He jumps in his pirogue headed down the bayou

[00:00:41] He's got fishing lines strung across the Louisiana Rivers

[00:00:45] Gotta catch a big fish for us to eat

[00:00:49] He's setting traps in the swamp catching anything he can

[00:00:53] He's gotta make a living, he's a Louisiana man

[00:00:57] Gotta make a living, he's a Louisiana man

[00:01:01] My Muskrat hides hanging by the dozens

[00:01:05] Even got a lady mink, a muskrat's cousin

[00:01:09] Got 'em out drying in the hot, hot sun

[00:01:13] Tomorrow papa's gonna turn 'em into money

[00:01:32] Well, they call mama Rita and my daddy Jack

[00:01:36] Little baby brother on the floor that's Mack

[00:01:40] Bren and Lin are the family twins

[00:01:44] And big brother Ed's on the bayou fishing

[00:01:48] On the river floats papa's great big boat

[00:01:51] And that's how my papa goes into town

[00:01:56] Takes him every bit of a night and a day

[00:02:00] To even reach a place where the people stay

[00:02:03] And I can hardly wait until tomorrow comes around

[00:02:07] That's the day my papa takes his furs to town

[00:02:11] Papa promised me that I could go

[00:02:15] He'd even let me see a cowboy show

[00:02:19] I saw the cowboys and Indians for the first time then

[00:02:23] I told my pop I've gotta go again

[00:02:27] Well, Papa said, "Son we've got lines to run

[00:02:31] We'll come back again but first there's work to be done"

[00:02:35] He's got fishing lines strung across the Louisiana Rivers

[00:02:39] Gotta catch a big fish for us to eat

[00:02:42] He's setting traps in the swamp catching anything he can

[00:02:47] Gotta make a living, he's a Louisiana man

[00:02:51] Gotta make a living, he's a Louisiana man

[00:02:55] Gotta make a living, he's a Louisiana man

[00:02:59] Gotta make a living, he's a Louisiana man
