A Little Louisiana Lyrics by Jesse Winchester

A Reasonable Amount of Trouble

2014

It's a pretty good way from here to there
And lying on the loose everywhere
You put your foot in a pile of blues
And if I may, I will tell you what you do
Take a little Louisiana
Take a little Louisiana
Take a little Louisiana wit ya everywhere you go
Well who knows what lies around the bend
It could be good but then again
It could be empty, cold, and bare
Like I say you better be prepared
Take a little Louisiana
Take a little Louisiana
Take a little Louisiana wit ya everywhere you go
Keep it kind a handy
Cause you don't ever know
One day you may really need it
You can see the writing on the wall
All you got to do it read it
Well the days are few and full of woe
At least the bible tells me so
So get your lovin' while you can
It's always good to have on hand
Take a little Louisiana
Take a little Louisiana
Take a little Louisiana wit ya everywhere you go
Well keep it kind a handy
You don't ever know
One day you may really need it
You can see the writing on the wall
All you got to do it read it
Yeah read it
Take a little Louisiana
Take a little Louisiana
Take a little Louisiana wit ya everywhere you go
Take a little Louisiana
Take a little Louisiana
Take a little Louisiana wit ya everywhere you go
