Well I'm finally goin' back to Louisiana runnin' and thumbin' all the wayThat started out the way out in CaliforniaI been makin' bout five hundred miles a dayI covered all the beaches on the west coast from Mexico Crason City BayBut Calilou was not in California that's where her daddy came from by the wayAnd by the way her mother was a cajunShe came from New Orleans I've heard her sayAnd it's just like a girl to wanna see her mamaSo I might find her there along the wayCalilou Calilou well they should have call you restlessWell they should have call you drifterYeah they should have call you trouble instead of CalilouI reacall the first time that I saw her I picked her up near Phoenix in my carJust another beauty seekin' fame and fortuneAnd I told her if she should be a movie starThe next time I saw her was Tucumcari she served my bowl of chilly with a smileI said it's been a year since I last saw youWonder how'd you like to share a few good milesWell the justice of the peace was very sleepy I held her in my arms a whole night longI whispered words like settle down and familyAnd when I woke up my Calilou was goneCalilou Calilou...Calilou Calilou...[ Rambler ]It's a long way to New Orleans[ Fisherman ]Well I got plenty of time[ Rambler ]Me too you know it's lot of fun just seein' what the next day has to offerYou never know what round the next bend[ Fisherman ]Or what we're gonna find either[ Rambler ]Do you know what I just wonder how long a man has to look before he finds himselfI just got the feelin' that the fire was burnin' outCause the air was turnin' colder every time you came aboutAnd a flame won't take a fannin' if the last reserve of love is runnin' lowSo since I've gotta button up I believe I'll hit the road and goCountry road 6-40 state highway 45 life out of the interstate is very much aliveThere's magic in the mountains and music in the valleys down belowAnd my song ain't through playin' yet so I believe I'll hit the road and go
