"Louisiana Stick" lyrics

You moved out to California, it didn't feel like home
You said New York City's too busy, you didn't stay too long
Well, let me run something by you if you've never seen
Yeah, the moonlight cutting through a cypress tree, baby, come and take a ride with me, yeah

Down south in the land of magnolias
I'll make you my riverboat queen
Give me a week and I'll show you what I mean
I guarantee you'll be falling in love real quick
Baby, I bet I can make Louisiana stick
Baby, I bet I can make Louisiana stick
I bet I can make Louisiana stick

I could take you to the swamplands, where the sugarcane grows
Yeah, you ain't been dancing till you're dancing to some zydeco
Baby, it'll get on you like a voodoo spell
You heard 'em sing about a Louisiana Saturday night, but you gotta see it for yourself

Down south in the land of magnolias
I'll make you my riverboat queen
Give me a week and I'll show you what I mean
I guarantee you'll be falling in love real quick
Baby, I bet I can make Louisiana stick

Like the back of your leg to a vinyl seat
Grandmama to a gumbo recipe
Blues in a bar on Frenchmen Street
It's gonna stick on you like it stuck on me, yeah

Down south in the land of magnolias
I'll make you my riverboat queen
Give me a week and I'll show you what I mean
I guarantee you'll be falling in love real quick
Baby, I bet I can make Louisiana stick

Baby, I bet I can make Louisiana stick
I bet I can make Louisiana stick
Baby, I bet I can make Louisiana stick
I bet I can make Louisiana stick
