Lights of Lousianne by jennifer warnes



one summer night he'll light a lantern

he'll catch a tiny firefly in a jar

set her dancing on the mantle¹

like a piece of star

see how the boy lays low

he wants the shiver in her wing

see him hiding in the willow²

playing with lightning




you don't know me

I don't know you

and the summer's come again

my oh my, the sparks are flyin'

all over Lousianne

there's lots of fishes in the sea

I swear I'm gonna catch one in my hand

make him dance for me

in the fryin' pan





you don't know me

I don't know you

and the summer's come again

my oh my, the fish are flyin'

all over Lousianne

in your eyes there's a light

it comes and it goes without a sound

if I hold on tight?

it's gonna burn me to the ground?




you don't know me

I don't know you

and the summer's come again?

my oh my, the sparks are flyin'?

all over Lousianne?

our lives go by like sparks are flyin'


all over Lousianne
