Lord Mary took to running with a traveling man
Left her momma crying with her head in her hands
Such a sad case, so broken hearted
She say momma, I got to go, gotta get outta here
Gotta get out of town I'm tired of hanging around
I gotta roll on between the ditches
It's just an ordinary story 'bout the way things goes
Round and around nobody knows
But the highway goes on forever
That ol' highway rolls on forever
Lord she never would've done it if she hadn't got drunk
If she hadn't started running with a traveling man
If she hadn't started taking those crazy changes
She said, ‽Daughter, let me tell you 'bout the traveling kind
Everywhere he's goin' such a very short time
He'll be long gone before you know it
He'll be long gone before you know itâ€
She said, ‽Never have I known it when it felt so good
Never have I knew it when I knew I could
Never have I done it when it looked so right
Leaving Louisiana in the broad daylightâ€
Well this is down in the swampland, where anything goes
It's alligator bait and the bars don't close
It's the real thing down in Louisiana
Now did you ever see a Cajun when he really got mad
When he really got trouble like a daughter gone bad
It gets real hot down in Louisiana
And now the stranger better move it or he's gonna get killed
He's gonna have to get it or a shotgun will
She said, ‽Never have I know it when it felt so good
Never have I knew it when I knew I could
Never have I done it when it looked so right
Leaving Louisiana in the broad daylightâ€
She said, ‽Never have I know it when it felt so good
Never have I knew it when I knew I could
Never have I done it when it looked so right
Leaving Louisiana in the broad daylightâ€
It's just an ordinary story 'bout the way things go
Round and around nobody knows
But the highway goes on forever
