Calling Baton Rouge
IN PIECES

I spent last night in the arms
Of a girl in Louisiana
And though I'm out on the highway
My thoughts are still with her
Such a strange combination of a woman and a child
Such a strange situation stopping' every hundred miles
calling Baton Rouge

A reply of last night's events
Roll through my mind
Except a scene or two 
Erased by sweet red wine
And I see a struck stop sigh ahead 
So I change lanes
I need a cup of coffee
 And a couple dollars change
Calling Baton Rouge

Operator won't you put me on through
I gotta' send my love down to baton rouge
Hurry up won't you put her on the line
I gotta talk to the girl just one more time

Hello Samantha dear, I hoe you're feelin' fine
And it won't be long until I'm with you all the time
But until then I'll spend my money up 
Right down to my last dime calling Baton Rouge

Operator won't you put me on through
I gotta' send my love down to baton rouge
Hurry up won't you put her on the line
I gotta talk to the girl just one more time
