[Bm]I spent last [A7]night in the arms of a [G]girl in Louisi[D]Louisiana
And [A7]though I'm out on the [D]highway my [G]thoughts are still with [A7]her
[Bm]Such a strange combi[A7]combination of a [G]woman and a child
[A7]Such a strange [D]situation stoppin' [G]every hundred [A7]miles
Callin' Baton [D]Rouge
a [Bm]replay of [A7]last night's [G]events rolls through my [D]mind
[A7]Except a [D]scene or two [G]erased by sweet red [A7]wine
[Bm]And I see a [A7]truck stop sign [G]ahead so I change [D]lanes
[A7]I need a cup of [D]coffee and a [G]couple dollars [A7]change
Callin' Baton [D]Rouge
[D]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 [G]time
[D]Hello Samantha dear I [Bm]hope you're feelin' fine
And it [D]won't be [A7]long until I'm [Bm]with you all the [A7]time
But [G]until then I'll spend my [A7]money up right [D]down to my last [G]dime
Oh [A7]oh oh callin' [D]Baton Rouge
O[D]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 [G]time
Oh oh [A7]oh in Baton [D]Rouge [Bm]
[A7]Sweet Baton [G]Rouge [Bm] [G]
My Baton [Bm]Rouge [A7]
[G]Yeah oh oh [D]oh oh
