[B]
Lord Mary took to running with a traveling man
Left her mama crying with [F#] her head in [E] her hands
Such a sad case, no [B] broken heart yet
She say, mama gotta go, gotta get out of here
Gotta get out of town, tired of hanging around
Gotta [E] roll on [B] between the ditches
It's just an ordinary story about the way things go
Round and around, nobody knows
But the [E] highway goes [B] on forever
Oh, [E] that old highway goes [B] on forever
Lord, she never would have done it if she hadn't got drunk
Hadn't started running with a traveling man
[E] If she hadn't started singing [B] those praise of Jesus
She said, darling, let me tell you about the traveling kind
Everywhere they go, such a very short time
It'll [E] be long gone [B] before you know
[E] Oh, it'll be long gone [B] before you know it
[G#m] She say, never ever know [F#] it when it felt so [E] good
Never ever knew [B] it when I knew I [G#m] could
Never ever thought it [F#] would look so [E] right
Living Louisiana in the broad daylight

Well, it's not in the swamp where anything goes
It's alligator bait and the bars don't close
[E] It's a real thing [B] down in Louisiana
Did you ever see a pigeon when he really got mad?
Really got trouble like a daughter gone [E] mad
If you so feel, come down [B] in Louisiana
Oh, stranger, better move it or it gonna get you
Gonna have to get it or shotgun
[E] Well, it ain't no time, it [B] ain't just be kidding
Boy, [E] it ain't no time, it [B] ain't just be kidding
She [G#m] say, never ever know it [F#] when it felt [E] so good
Never [B] ever knew it when I knew I [G#m] could
Never [F#] ever thought it would look so [E] right
Living Louisiana in the broad daylight
She [G#m] say, never ever [F#] know it when it felt so [E] good
Never ever [B] knew it when I knew I [G#] could
Never ever [F#] thought it would look so [E] right
Living Louisiana in the broad daylight

Goes [B] on, there [E] ain't no stop [B] the water
