Louisiana Rain lyrics

Well it was out in California
By the San Diego sea
That was when I was taken in
By an aging boardwalk queen
Yeah she nearly drove me crazy
With all those china toys, and I know She really didn't mean a thing
To any of those sailor boys

{Chorus #1}:
Louisiana rain is falling at my feet Baby I'm noticing a change
As I move down the street
Louisiana rain
Is soaking through my shoes
I may never be the same
When I reach Baton Rouge

South Carolina
Put out it's arms for me
Right up until everything went black Somewhere on Baker Street
And it was just some mean old poison That I took up my nose
Thank God for a love that follows
The angels and the whores

{Chorus #2}:
Louisiana rain
Is falling just like tears
Running down my face
Washing out the years
Louisiana rain
Is soaking through my shoes
I may never be the same
When I reach Baton Rouge

Well I never will get over
This English refugee, singing to the Jukebox in the all night beanery
Yeah he was eating pills like candy And chasing them with tea
You should have seen him lick his lips That old black muddled beak

{Chorus #1}

{Chorus #2}
