GHe was twenty-five, Dshe was twenty-eight
He was Chome grown country
She'd just Dpulled off the interstate
She Gbought a Dr. Pepper, ten Ddollars worth of gas
She was Cobviously lost but Dtoo afraid to ask diGrections D
So he Goffered her a smile and a Dstick of Beech Nut gum
He said Cwhere you headed to girl, where are you Dcoming from
She said?(chorus)
NGew OrleansD but that's another Cstory C D
NGew OrleansD that's another Ctime
That's another Dtown, that's another Glife C D
GFirst she stayed a day Dthen she stayed a week
CCouple of months later
They were Dliving on his parent's street
GHe worked the station and Dshe worked the store
And Cthen they had a baby and
DThen they had one mGore little Jesse D
GWhen she dropped the kids off at the Dmother's day out
All the Cladies had their questions
But knew Dnot to ask about (Chorus)
Wednesday night supper at the First Baptist Church
Stranger standin' in the doorway
As they're passin' out the dessert
He said go on and pack your bags
Cause I'm here to take you home
I'm goin' back to Louisiana
And woman I ain't gonna go with out you
There's a few defining moments in every person's life
When you know what you've done wrong
And you know what you've done right
And before the congregation and her husband and her kids
She says, "How dare you even speak to me
After everything you did"...in
That's another town, that's another life
