Louisiana Lady
Journey Home: Embracing Love's Awaited Reunion
Lyrics
I been on this road for seven days
I've been traveling on this road for seven days
And I'm so beat my vision's just a yellow haze
Exhausted to the point where my sight is blurred and yellow
But I know that I am gonna make it home tonight
Confident that I will reach home tonight
And then I'm gonna see my light
Anticipating the joy of reuniting with a guiding light
Yeah, tonight I'll see my Louisiana lady
Expressing excitement about seeing a special person in Louisiana
My Louisiana lady's gonna sleep with me tonight, and hold me tight
Expecting to spend the night together, finding comfort and closeness
Louisiana lady
Reiterating the connection to the Louisiana lady
Know that I need you
Acknowledging the importance of the Louisiana lady
Louisiana lady I love you
Expressing love for the Louisiana lady
Louisiana lady I love you
Repeating the declaration of love for the Louisiana lady
Six more hours till I make New Orleans
Anticipating reaching New Orleans in six hours
Oh, well I been doin' too much speed and feelin'
Admitting to excessive speed and a mean disposition due to fatigue
Downright mean
Feeling unpleasant or aggressive
And I think that I can cut an hour off the time
Believing that thoughts of the lady can shorten the travel time
If I keep lady on my mind
Committing to keeping the lady in mind to expedite the journey
Yeah, tonight I'll see my Louisiana lady
Expressing eagerness to see the Louisiana lady tonight
My Louisiana lady's gonna sleep with me tonight, and hold me tight
Expecting to share the night and receive affection from the lady
Louisiana lady
Reaffirming the connection with the Louisiana lady
Know that I need you
Acknowledging the necessity of the Louisiana lady
Louisiana lady I love you
Expressing love for the Louisiana lady
Louisiana lady I love you
Repeating the declaration of love for the Louisiana lady
Well, every man has got to earn his pay
Acknowledging the need for every man to earn his pay
Oh, but I feel so bad each time I have to
Feeling regretful about leaving each time for work
To go away
Expressing the emotional toll of separation
But when I get home tonight it's gonna be worthwhile
Believing that returning home tonight will be rewarding
I'm gonna see my lady smile
Anticipating the joy of seeing the lady smile upon arrival
Yeah, tonight I'll see my Louisiana lady
Expressing excitement about seeing the Louisiana lady tonight
My Louisiana lady's gonna sleep with me tonight, and hold me tight
Expecting to spend the night together, finding comfort and closeness
Louisiana lady
Reaffirming the connection with the Louisiana lady
Know that I need you
Acknowledging the necessity of the Louisiana lady
Louisiana lady oh
Expressing love for the Louisiana lady
Louisiana lady oh
Repeating the declaration of love for the Louisiana lady
Louisiana lady oh
Repeating the acknowledgment and love for the Louisiana lady
Louisiana lady I love you
Final declaration of love for the Louisiana lady
