GIVE ME LOUISIANA
(Words & Music : Doralice Fontane / Arranged by Dr. John Croom)


Give me Louisiana, 
The State where I was born 
The State of snowy cotton, 
The best I've ever known; 
A State of sweet magnolias, 
And Creole melodies. 
Oh give me Louisiana, 
The State where I was born 
Oh what sweet old mem'ries 
The mossy old oaks bring. 
It brings us the story 
of our Evangeline. 
A State of old tradition, 
of old plantation days 
Makes good ole Louisiana 
The sweetest of all States.
