Back in Louisiana, there was a little tune
One you used to sing me long ago
One that made me happy, one I sure can use
I think you might remember how it goes
Sing it for your sister, (sister)
Sing it like you choose (sister)
Sing it like you did in better days
Sing it for your brother, (brother)
Why don't we get loose, (my brother)
Sing it 'fore we go our different ways
Yeah, sing it one more time like that
Sing it one more time like that
Sing it with me, please don't let me sing alone
Sing it one more time like that
Sing these troubles off my back
Sing it one more time like that before you go
Take me to the Delta where we used to run
In the evening when the moon was bright
Take me to the river, when the work is done
Laugh and sing 'til early morning light
Hell yeah! Sing it for your sister, (sister)
Sing it like you choose (sister)
Sing it like you did in better days
Sing it for your brother, (brother)
Why don't we get loose, (my brother)
Sing it 'fore we go our different ways
Yeah, sing it one more time like that
Sing it one more time like that
Sing it with me, please don't let me sing alone
Sing it one more time like that
Sing these troubles off my back
Sing it one more time like that before you go
Sing it one more time like that
Sing it one more time like that
Sing it with me, please don't let me sing alone
Sing it one more time like that
Sing these troubles off my back
Sing it one more time like that before you go
Sing it one more time like that
Sing it one more time like that
Sing it with me, please don't let me sing alone
Sing it one more time like that
Sing these troubles off my back
Sing it one more time like that before you go
