Connie Smith – Louisiana Man[00:00:00]
At birth Mom and Papa called their little boy Ned[00:00:05]
They raised him on the banks of the river bed[00:00:08]
A houseboat tied to a big tall tree[00:00:11]
A home for my Papa and my Mama and me[00:00:13]
The clock strikes three Papa jumps to his feet[00:00:16]
Already mama's cookin' Papa something to eat[00:00:19]
At half past Papa he's ready to go[00:00:21]
He jumps in his piro headed down the bayou[00:00:24]
He's got fishin' lines strung across the Louisiana river[00:00:27]
Gotta catch a big fish for us to eat[00:00:30]
He set the traps in the swamp catchin' anything he can[00:00:32]
Gotta make a livin' he's a Louisiana man[00:00:35]
Gotta make a livin' he's a Louisiana man[00:00:38]
A muskrat hides a hangin' by the dozen[00:00:41]
Even got a lady make a muskrat's cousin[00:00:44]
Got 'em out dryin' in the hot hot sun[00:00:46]
Tomorrow Papa's gonna turn 'em into mon[00:00:49]
They call my Mama Rita and my Daddy's Jack[00:01:09]
A little baby brother on the floor that's Mac[00:01:11]
Big brother Ed's on the bayou fishin'[00:01:14]
Fram and Malene are the family twins[00:01:17]
On the river float Papa's great big boat[00:01:19]
That's for my Papa goes into town[00:01:22]
He takes every bit of the night and day[00:01:25]
To even reach the place where the people stay[00:01:28]
I can hardly wait until tomorrow comes around[00:01:30]
That's the day my Papa takes his fire to town[00:01:33]
Papa promised me that I could go even let me see a cowboy show[00:01:36]
I saw the cowboys and Indians for the first time[00:01:41]
Then I told my Papa gotta go again[00:01:44]
Papa said hon' we got the lines to run[00:01:47]
We'll come back tomorrow 'cause the work to be done[00:01:50]
He's got fishin' lines strung across the Louisiana river[00:01:53]
Gotta catch a big fish for us to eat[00:01:55]
He set the traps in the swamp catchin' anything he can[00:01:58]
Gotta make a livin' he's a Louisiana man[00:02:01]
Gotta make a livin' he's a Louisiana man[00:02:04]
Gotta make a livin' he's a Louisiana man[00:02:07]
Gotta make a livin' he's a Louisiana man[00:02:09]
Hey[00:02:16]
