Atchafalya Love Affair lyrics

It was a dream I had a long time ago

Louisiana rain comes falling down

It was a song I sang a long time ago

It was the girl I tried to sing it with

And the colors that she wore to bed



Momma told her not to go

Daddy threw the radio

Didn`t think you`d really care

Atchafalaya love affair

Louisiana



He was a bayou boy, he wore the corduroy

It was safe to say he lived his life in chains

He was the great white hurting

She was a bible girl, wasn`t known to whirl

She was all she ever thought that she could be

Maybe just a little bit more tonight for me



Momma told her not to go

Daddy threw the radio

Didn`t think you`d really care

Atchafalaya love affair

Louisiana...went a little like this



It was a dream I had a long time ago

Louisiana, Roosevelt, and me

Walking backwards in the rain

It was a song I sang a long time ago

It was the girl I tried to sing it with

And the colors that she wore to bed



Momma told her not to go

Daddy threw the radio

Didn`t think you`d really care

Atchafalaya love affair

Louisiana love

Atchafalaya along with me

Louisiana love...

It went a little like this
