Chorus:
Adalida, pretty little Cajun queen
Sweet dixie flower, bell of the bayou
You're every young man's dream
Adalida, I'd walk through a hurricane
To stand beside you sweet Adalida
I'd swim the Pontchartrain
Oh no, here you comin' down the road
Way your cotton dress a swishin'
You're gettin' some attention
From all the boys in the Thibodaux
Oh my, you're really fillin' up their eyes
Smilin' and a winkin', I know what they're thinkin'
But I'm the only one who loves you so!
Chorus
Oh no, the hottest little dish I know
I know you can tell it
You're makin' me so jealous
From my head down to my toes
Oh me, you could make a redneck dream
The way that you're lookin'
You got me a-cookin'
And I ain't talkin' 'bout et tu fait
Chorus X2
No one thought that I'd jump off that rocky ledge
So I did, and I broke my leg
And I let Jim Bean tell me
That I could take some guy, twice my size
But ol' Jim lied
I can't pretend that I ain't been my life's own wrecking crew
But now I'm surprised that I survived all I've put myself through
Before I knew better
Before I woke up
I did a whole lot of crazy, foolish things I'm not proud of
It was just like me to risk it all
Even when the pain outweighed the pleasure
Before I knew better
You were the first to ever make me want to change my reckless ways
And I almost did, but somehow I lost track and wound up giving in
To the late night life and the good-time friends
You swore to me one day you'd leave
And all I had to say was
"There's the door... whatcha waiting for... and who needs you anyway..."
Before I knew better
Before I woke up
I said a whole lot of crazy, foolish things I'm not proud of
It was just like me to risk it all
Even when the pain outweighed the pleasure
Before I knew better
Girl, I pray some how, some way
We can turn this thing around
I thought your love was something I could live without
Before I knew... before I knew better
Before I woke up
I said a whole lot of crazy, foolish things I'm not proud of
It was just like me to risk it all
Even when the pain outweighed the pleasure
Before I knew better
Before I knew better
Before I knew better
Before I knew better
I spent last night in the arms
Of a girl in Louisiana
And though I'm out on the highway
My thoughts are still with her
Such a strange combination of a woman and a child
Such a strange situation stoppin' every hundred miles
Callin' Baton Rouge
A replay of last night's events
Roll through my mind
Except a scene or two
Erased by sweet red wine
And I see a truck stop sign ahead
So I change lanes
I need a cup of coffee
And a couple dollars change
Callin' Baton Rouge
Operator won't you put me on through
I gotta' send my love down to Baton Rouge
Hurry up won't you put her on the line
I gotta' talk to the girl just one more time
Hello Samantha dear, I hope you're feelin' fine
And it won't be long until I'm with you all the time
But until then I'll spend my money up right down to my last dime
Callin' Baton Rouge
Operator won't you put me on through
I gotta' send my love down to Baton Rouge
Hurry up won't you put her on the line
I gotta' talk to the girl just one more time
Callin' Baton Rouge
Sweet Baton Rouge, my Baton Rouge
I've had choices since the day that I was born.
There were voices that told me right from wrong.
If I had listened
No I wouldn't be here today living and dying with the choices I've made.
I was tempted, by an early age I have found I like drinking.
Oh no I have never turned it down.
There were loved ones but I turned them all away.
Now I am living and dying with the choices I've made.
I've had choices since the day that I was born.
There were voices that told me right from wrong.
If I had listened
No I wouldn't be here today living and dying with the choices I've made.
I guess I am paying for the things that I have done.
If I could go back,
Oh Lord knows I would but I'm still losing this game of life I've played.
Living and dying with the choices I've made.
I've had choices since the day that I was born.
There were voices that told me right from wrong.
If I had listened I wouldn't be here today living and dying with the choices I've made.
Living and dying with the choices I've made.
I remember daddy's hands folded silently in prayer,
And reachin' out to hold me when I had a nightmare.
You could read quite a story in the callouses and lines,
Years of work and worry had left their mark behind.
I remember daddy's hands, how they held my momma tight,
And patted my back for something done right.
There are things I've forgotten that I loved about the man,
But I'll always remember the love in daddy's hands.
Daddy's hands... soft and kind when I was cryin',
Daddy's hands... hard as steel when I done wrong.
Daddy's hands weren't always gentle,
But I've come to understand,
There was always love in daddy's hands.
I remember daddy's hands, workin' till they bled,
Sacrificed unselfishly just to keep us all fed.
If I could do things over I'd live my life again,
And never take for granted the love in daddy's hands.
Daddy's hands... soft and kind when I was cryin',
Daddy's hands... hard as steel when I done wrong.
Daddy's hands weren't always gentle but I've come to understand,
There was always love in daddy's hands.
Daddy's hands... soft and kind when I was cryin',
Daddy's hands... hard as steel when I done wrong.
Daddy's hands weren't always gentle but I've come to understand,
There was always love in daddy's hands.
I Love A Rainy Night
Well, I love a rainy night
Well, I love a rainy night
Showers was all my cares away
Well, I love a rainy night
Well, I love a rainy night
Puts a song in this heart of mine
Cuz I love a rainy night
They come from the wrong side of the tracks
Chorus:
Daughters love 'em, daddies hate 'em
Chorus
They'll take any wrong direction
Daddy waited up
He said, "Son, I know you live here,
And before I slammed that door, I said, "I hate you."
"...But you can't stop my love for you.
Life is like a circle
We stood in this bedroom
And before you slammed that door, you said, "I hate you."
"You can't stop my love for you.
When You Leave That Way You Can Never Go Back
I remember waking in the morning
Chorus:
Then I met a girl in Knoxville
Chorus
Lord I'd love to see my mom and daddy
Chorus
He said son, when you leave this way you can never come back
I love a rainy night
I love to hear the thunder
Watch the lightning when it lights up the sky
You know it makes me feel good
It's such a beautiful sight
I love to fell the rain on my face
Taste the rain on my lips
In the moonlight shadow
I wake up to a sunny day
Cuz I love a rainy night
Yeah, I love a rainy night
Well, I love a rainy night
I love a rainy night
I love a rainy night
I love to hear the thunder
Watch the lightning when it lights up the sky
You know it makes me feel good
It's such a beautiful sight
I love to fell the rain on my face
Taste the rain on my lips
In the moonlight shadow
Puts a smile on my face everytime
Yeah, I love a rainy night
Ooh, I love a rainy night
Yeah, I love a rainy night...
Born a new breed apart
Can't tie em up, ya can't pin 'em down
They're clinging to some old star
They chase that restless spirit
Wherever the four winds blow
There's another dream just around the bend
For renegades, rebels, and rogues
Renegades, rebels, and rogues
Eyes of fire, hearts of gold
They ramble till they drop
Gamble till the money runs out
They'll take any wrong direction
It's in their blood to know
That all roads lead to another road
For renegades, rebels, and rogues
Mamas don't understand
Whenever life deals 'em down and dirty
They just play another hand
And there's a place in heaven
For those wild and kindred souls
But they'll be raising hell till then
Renegades, rebels, and rogues
It's in their blood to know
That all roads lead to another road
For renegades, rebels, and rogues
In the kitchen by himself
I came stumblin' in that night
With liquor on my breath
But this is still my home.
It's my way or the highway..."
So, I said, "Alright, I'm gone."
He just shook his head and said, "Okay."
It'll be here, that's a given,
As long as I am livin' on this earth,
One thing is true.
You can turn away, forget me,
Curse my name, but love won't let me let you go.
Son, always know... my love is unconditional."
Slowly turning on itself
And, girl, it took losing you
To finally know how daddy felt
A year ago today
Hanging on the pride and anger
As we threw our love away
But tonight if you could hear me say...
It will be here, that's a given,
As long as I am living on this earth,
One thing is true.
You can turn away, forget me,
Curse my name, but love won't let me let you go.
Girl, always know... my love is unconditional."
To the sound of the rooster's crow
Mamma cooking in the kitchen
Arthur Godfrey on the radio
Me and Dad were just like strangers
We never did see eye to eye
Came to blows one Sunday morning
So I packed my bags and I said goodbye
When you leave that way you can never go back
A train won't run on a torn up track
Sometimes I wish I'd never roamed,oh no
'Cause when you leave that way you can never go home
Oh, we set our wedding day
I left her standing at the alter
With a baby on the way
And what I'd give to hold that boy of mine
I'd get down on my knees and I'd say I'm sorry
If I could only go back one more time
But I killed a man in Houston
When he caught me with his wife
And I told the preacher man to leave me alone
When he came to read my rights
A soul won't roll on a torn up track
All through eternity you'll roam alone
'Cause when you leave this way you can never come home
All through eternity you'll roam alone
'Cause when you leave this way you can never come home
