I am going
Down Louisiana way
I'm going back
As of this very day
Don't worry about me
Cause I'll be okay
I'm going down Louisiana way
I will miss
All my old Chicago friends
And think about you
San Francisco now and then
I will remember
My compadres in LA
Look me up down Louisiana way
I am going
Down Louisiana way
I'm going back
As of this very day
Don't worry about me
Cause I'll be okay
I'm going down Louisiana way
Don't let your eyes
Get misty now
We knew the time would come around
For me to go
And I will miss you
So long, friend
Guess I'll see you while ago
I might be back
Sometime you just never know
I have left a sweetheart
North of Whiskey Bay
True love waits down Louisiana way
I am going
Down Louisiana way
I'm going back
As of this very day
Don't worry about me
Cause I'll be okay
I'm going down Louisiana way
I'm going down Louisiana way
I am going
Down Louisiana way
I'm going back
As of this very day
Don't worry about me
Cause I'll be okay
I'm going down Louisiana way
I'm going down Louisiana way
