Tom Petty - Louisiana Rain lyrics

Well, it was out in California
By the San Diego sea
That was when I was taken in and
It left it's mark on me
Yeah, she nearly drove me crazy
With all those china toys
And I know she really didn't mean
A thing to those sailor boys

Louisiana rain is falling at my feet
Baby, I'm noticing the 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 lonely street
And I still can't quite remember who
Helped me to my feet
Thank God for a love that
Followed the angel's remedy

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
Some all night beanery
Yeah, he was eating pills like candy
Chasing them with tea
You should have seen him lick his lips
That old black muddied beak

Louisiana rain is falling at my feet
Honey, 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

Louisiana rain, yeah
It's falling just like tears
It's 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
No, I may never be the same
When I reach Baton Rouge
