I spent last night in the arms of a girl from Louisiana
B E A B
And though I'm out on the highway my thoughts are still with her
C#m B A E
Such a strange combination of a woman and a child
B E A B E
Such a strange situation stoppin 'every twenty miles callin' Baton Rouge
C#m B
A replay of events last night
A E
Rolls through my mind
B E
Except a scene or two
A B
Erased by sweet red wine
C#m B
And I see a truck stop sign ahead
A E
So I change lanes
B E
I need a cup of coffee
A B
And a couple dollars change
E
Callin' Baton Rouge
E
Operator, won't you put 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

And it won't be long until
C#m B A B
I'm with you all the time, but until then I'll spend my money up
E A B E
right down to my last dime, callin Baton Rouge
