Deep In Louisiana

Oh boy, Friday's here again
 Gotta wake up and get my eight hours in
 I'm so tired tryin' to get to work on time
 But I'm smiling 'cause tonight is gonna be so fine.
 When that cantaloupe moon starts to rise
 Into a purple bayou sky
 Ain't it good to be alive, deep in Louisiana
 Hear the fiddles playin' on through the night
 Where people dance till the morning light
 Proud as hell to live and die deep in Louisiana.
 I say deep, deep, deep in Louisiana.
 I say deep, deep, deep in Louisiana.
 Oh me, how the noontime sun beats down
 Oh, I feel the heat rise off the ground
 I keep working and the time goes dragging by
 So I daydream about how it's gonna be tonight.
 When that cantaloupe moon starts to rise
 Into a purple bayou sky
 Ain't it good to be alive, deep in Louisiana
 Hear the fiddles playin' on through the night
 Where people dance till the morning light
 Proud as hell to live and die deep in Louisiana.
 I say deep, deep, deep in Louisiana.
 I say deep, deep, deep in Louisiana.
 You'll find we don't have much time for tears
 And your lonely blues are just gonna disappear.
 When that cantaloupe moon starts to rise
 Into a purple bayou sky
 Ain't it good to be alive, deep in Louisiana
 Hear the fiddles playin' on through the night
 Where people dance till the morning light
 Proud as hell to live and die deep in Louisiana.
 I say deep, deep, deep in Louisiana.
 I say deep, deep, deep in Louisiana.
 I say deep, deep, deep in Louisiana.
 I say deep, deep, deep in Louisiana...
