	        B 
Lord Mary took to running with a travelin man 

Left her momma crying with her head in her hands 
       E                  B 
Such a sad case so broken hearted 
B 
She say momma I got to go I gotta get out of here 

I gotta get out of town 

I'm tired of hanging around 
        E                   B 
I gotta roll on between the ditches 
B 
It's just an ordinary story bout the way things go 

Round and round nobody knows 
        E                  B 
But the highway goes on forever 
         E                 B 
That old highway rolls on forever 
B 
Lord she never would have done it if she hadn't got drunk 

If she hadn't started running with a traveling man 
       E                                 B 
If she hadn't started taking those crazy chances 
B 
She say daughter let me tell you bout the traveling kind 

Eveywhere he's going such a very short time 
         E                    B

         E                    B 
He'll be long gone before you know it 
        G#m                           F# 
She say never have I known it when it felt so good 
E                           B 
Never have I knew it when I knew I could 
G#m                          F# 
Never have I done it when it looked so right 
E 
Leaving Louisiana in the broad daylight 

B 
This is down in the swampland anything goes 

It's alligator bait and the bars don't close 
         E                      B 
It's the real thing down in Louisiana 
B 
Did you ever a cajun when he really got mad 

Really got trouble like a daughter gone bad 
        E                      B 
It gets real hot down in Louisiana 
B

He's gonna have to get it or a shotgun will 
         E                   B
