Take Me Lake Charles - Shinyribs, Patrick Sweany

Take me to Lake Charles, I can win a hundred dollars

Buy some milk and mashed potatoes, maybe buy you some flowers

I lost my license when Rita came ashore

Tryin' to help my sister, I dropped it on the floor

So take me to Lake Charles

Take me to Lake Charles

Take me to Lake Charles

Take me to Lake Charles

I swear if you give me a ride over there

I’ll buy the buffets and a dress you can wear

Twenty-one's comin' to me, I can feel it in my bones

I’ll have to change my name to «Savings and Loan»

So take me to Lake Charles

Take me to Lake Charles

Take me to Lake Charles

Take me to Lake Charles

Baby, I need that hundred dollars to pay down my loan

I hocked all my tools when I broke my bone

I was stuck in Sour Lake, just a nickel to my name

My cousin comin' to get me in the drizzling rain

So take me to Lake Charles

Take me to Lake Charles

Take me to Lake Charles

Take me to Lake Charles

I can’t drive legal, I can’t drive at all

Interstate 10 is a-crawlin' with the law

Them Louisiana state troopers, you know, they never sleep

They got nasty disposition and they target the free

So take me to Lake Charles

Take me to Lake Charles

Take me to Lake Charles

Take me to Lake Charles

Take me to Lake Charles

Take me to Lake Charles

Take me to Lake Charles

Take me to Lake Charles
