(Rodney Crowell/Donivan Cowart)
2
Mary took to running with a travelin' man
3
Left her momma crying with her head in her hands
4
Such a sad case, so broken hearted
5
She say momma, I got to go, I gotta get outta here
6
I gotta get out of town; I'm tired of hanging around
7
I gotta roll on between the ditches
8
It's just an ordinary story 'bout the way things go
9
Round and around nobody knows, but the highway
10
Goes on forever, that 'ol highway rolls on forever
11
Lord she never would've done it if she hadn't got drunk
12
If she hadn't started running with a travelin man
13
If she hadn't started taking those crazy changes
14
She say daughter, let me tell you 'bout the travelin kind
15
Everywhere he's goin' such a very short time
16
He'll be long gone before you know it, he'll be long
17
Gone before you know it
18
She say never have I known it when it felt so good
19
Never have I knew it when I knew I could
20
Never have I done it when it looked so right
21
Leaving Louisiana in the broad daylight
22
This is down in the swampland, anything goes
23
It's alligator bait and the bars don't close
24
It's the real thing down in Louisiana
25
Did you ever see a cajun when he really got mad
26
When he really got trouble like a daughter gone bad
27
It gets real hot down in Louisiana
28
The stranger better move it or he's gonna get killed
29
He's gonna have to get it or a shotgun will
30
It ain't no time for lengthy speeches
31
There ain't no time for lengthy speeches
32
She say never have I know it when it felt so good
33
Never have I knew it when I knew I could
34
Never have I done it when it looked so right
35
Leaving Louisiana in the broad daylight
36
It's just an ordinary story 'bout the way things go
37
Round and around nobody knows, but the highway goes on forever
38
There ain't no way to stop the water
