Since you left me the

tears are fallin'

Can't you hear my lips a callin'

Come back come back to Louisiana

Katrina/Rita caused this aching

It's my heart you're breakin'

Come back come back to Louisiana

Nothin' seems right

No days just nights

Don't you know I'm lonely

And I want you only

My pirogue' don't pole the same

Some times I don't know my name

Come back come back to Louisiana

Some times I think I'm dying

Even the willow trees are cryin'

Come back come back to Louisiana

B. Jay Chevalier shall be known as the official state troubadour for the Hurricane Katrina and Hurricane Rita relief efforts as he travels the world bringing awareness of the destruction caused by the hurricanes and the continuing needs of the people of Louisiana.
