(Rodney Crowell/Donivan Cowart)
Mary took to running with a travelin' man
Left her momma crying with her head in her hands
Such a sad case, so broken hearted
She say momma, I got to go, I gotta get outta here
I gotta get out of town; I'm tired of hanging around
I gotta roll on between the ditches
It's just an ordinary story 'bout the way things go
Round and around nobody knows, but the highway
Goes on forever, that 'ol highway rolls on forever
Lord she never would've done it if she hadn't got drunk
If she hadn't started running with a travelin man
If she hadn't started taking those crazy changes
She say daughter, let me tell you 'bout the travelin kind
Everywhere he's goin' such a very short time
He'll be long gone before you know it, he'll be long
Gone before you know it
She say never have I known it when it felt so good
Never have I knew it when I knew I could
Never have I done it when it looked so right
Leaving Louisiana in the broad daylight
This is down in the swampland, anything goes
It's alligator bait and the bars don't close
It's the real thing down in Louisiana
Did you ever see a cajun when he really got mad
When he really got trouble like a daughter gone bad
It gets real hot down in Louisiana
The stranger better move it or he's gonna get killed
He's gonna have to get it or a shotgun will
It ain't no time for lengthy speeches
There ain't no time for lengthy speeches
She say never have I know it when it felt so good
Never have I knew it when I knew I could
Never have I done it when it looked so right
Leaving Louisiana in the broad daylight
It's just an ordinary story 'bout the way things go
Round and around nobody knows, but the highway goes on forever
There ain't no way to stop the water
Emmylou Harris is an American singer-songwriter born in Alabama in 1947. Considered one of the most influential country singers of the 1970s and beyond, she has managed to combine folk, country, and rock elements into a unique sound. Her musical career took a significant turn in 1971 when Chris Hillman, member of The Byrds and The Flying Burrito Band, introduced her to Gram Parsons, a pioneer of country-rock. Harris collaborated with Parsons on his debut album *GP* and the subsequent *Grievous Angel*, considered one of the genre's masterpieces. After the tragic death of Parsons in 1973, Harris continued a successful career, releasing numerous critically acclaimed albums, including *Pieces of the Sky* (1975), *Luxury Liner* (1977) and *White Flowers* (1981).
