Lake Charles

He had a reason to get back to Lake Charles

He used to talk about it

He'd just go on and on

He always said Louisiana

Was where he felt at home

He was born in Nacogdoches

That's in East Texas

Not far from the border

But he liked to tell everybody

He was from Lake Charles

Did an angel whisper in your ear

And hold you close and take away your fear

In those long last moments

We used to drive

Thru Lafayette and Baton Rouge

In a yellow Camino

Listening to Howling Wolf

He liked to stop in Lake Charles

Cause that's the place that he loved

Did you run about as far as you could go

Down the  Louisiana highway

Across Lake Ponchatrain

Now your soul is in Lake Charles

No matter what they say

Did an angel whisper in your ear

And hold you close and take away your fear

In those long last moments



SOLO



He had a reason to get back to Lake Charles

He used to talk about it

He'd just go on and on

He always said  Louisiana

Was where he felt at home

Did an angel whisper in your ear

And hold you close and take away your fear

In those long last moments

Did an angel whisper in your ear

And hold you close and take away your fear

In those long last moments
