Louisiana Man

Lyrics

Kershaw
 First Momma Poppa call a little boy Ned
 Raise him on the banks of the riverbed
 In a houseboat tied to a big tall tree
 Home for my Momma and my Poppa and me.
 Half-past three Poppa jumps to his feet
 Already Momma cooking Poppa somethin' to eat
 Half-past five Poppa's ready to go
 Jumps in his hero headed down the bayou.
 Got fishin' lines running cross the Louisiana river
 Gonna catch a big fish for us to eat
 Settin' traps in the swamp, catchin' everything they can
 Gonna make a livin', he's a Louisiana man
 Gonna make a livin', he's a Louisiana man.
 Muskrat hides hangin' by the dozen
 Even got a little baby muskrat cousin
 Got 'em out dryin' in the hot, hot sun
 Tomorrow Poppa's gonna turn 'em into money.
 Got fishin' lines running cross the Louisiana river
 Gonna catch a big fish for us to eat
 Settin' traps in the swamp, catchin' everything they can
 Gonna make a livin', he's a Louisiana man
 Gonna make a livin', he's a Louisiana man
 Gonna make a livin', he's a Louisiana man
 Gonna make a livin', he's a Louisiana man.
 Muskrat hides hangin' by the dozen
 Even got a little baby muskrat cousin
 Got 'em out dryin' in the hot, hot sun
 Tomorrow Poppa's gonna turn 'em into money.
 Got fishin' lines running cross the Louisiana river
 Gonna catch a big fish for us to eat
 Settin' traps in the swamp, catchin' everything they can
 Gonna make a livin', he's a Louisiana man
 Gonna make a livin', he's a Louisiana man
 Gonna make a livin', he's a Louisiana man
 Gonna make a livin', he's a Louisiana man
