Lost lyrics

Lord, Mary took to running with a travelin` man
Left her momma crying with her head in her hands
Such a sad case, so broken hearted
She say: Momma, I got to go, got to get outta here
I gotta get out of town, I`m tired of hangin` around
I gotta roll on between the ditches
It`s just an ordinary story `bout the way things go
`Round ans around nobody knows
But the highway goes on forever
That ol` highway goes on forever
Lord, she never would have done it if she hadn`t got drunk
If she hadn`t started runnin` with a travelin` man
If she hadn`t started taking, those crazy chances
She say, daughter, let me tell you `bout the travelin` kind
Everywhere she`s going such a very short time
He`ll be long gone, before you know it
He`ll be long gone, before you know it
She say, never have I known it when it felt so good
Never I knew it when I knew it could
Never have I done it when it looked so right
Leaving Louisiana in the broad daylight
This is down in the swampland, anything goes
It`s alligator bait and the bars don`t close
It`s the real thing, down in Louisiana
Did you ever see a Cajun when he really got mad
When he really got trouble like a daughter gone bad
It gets real hot in Louisiana
Now the stranger better move it or he`s gonna get killed
He`s gonna have to get it or a shotgun will
It ain`t no time for lengthy speeches
It ain`t no time for lengthy speeches
She say, never have I known it when it felt so good
Never I knew it when I knew it could
Never have I done it when it looked so right
Leaving Louisiana in the broad daylight
Leaving Louisiana in the broad daylight
It`s just an ordinary story `bout the the way things go-acapo
