[Verse 1]
[Am]I spent last night[G] in the arms of a girl[F]
in Louisi[C]ana
[G]And though I'm out on the hig[C]hway,
my [F]thoughts are still with [G]her
[Am]Such a strange combinati[G]on of a woma[F]n

[G]Such a strange situati[C]on
stoppin' [F]every hundred miles

[Verse 2]
[Am]A replay of la[G]st night's event[F]s
roll through my [C]mind
[G]Except a sce[C]ne or two
e[F]rased by sweet red [G]wine
[Am]And I see a truc[G]k stop sign ahead,[F]
so I change [C]lanes
[G]I need a cup of cof[C]fee
and a [F]couple dollars change
[G]Callin' Baton Rou[C]ge[C]

[C]Operator, won't you put me on through
