Lyrics:

I've known some women in every state
New York City to the Golden Gate
And I've lived with some, and buddy, I loved 'em all (Yes, I did)
But no one woman had a claim on me
'Cause I still had a lotta world to see
And I sometimes stagger, but sugar, I seldom fall

And like a hungry man, I went to Louisiana
Where the lovin' and the livin' was good
Without a care to hide and just as satisfied as I could be
A lotta women and wine and not a tie to bind me
And behaving just as cool as I could
Till that long legged, sweet walkin'
Raven-haired and cajun lookin' devil put the sweat on me

They call her Smokey, she's a little bit-a evil
Smokey, right as wrong can be
Smokey, she could shake the very devil
Smokey put the sweat on me
Oh, Smokey put the sweat on me

Oh, my pulse is a-beatin' to the clickety clack
Of this one-way ride that's gonna take me back
And my body's just a-breathin' in the Mississippi River smell
Well, my feet wasn't ready yet for settling down
But my soul kept tellin' me to turn around
And the longer I tried to fight it, the harder I fell

And like a hungry man, I went to Louisiana
Where the lovin' and the livin' was good
I get a brand new bride and be as satisfied as I could be
And won't even mind the world I'm leavin' behind
'Cause I never really thought that I could
Till that long legged, sweet walkin'
Raven-haired and cajun lookin' devil put the sweat on me

They called her Smokey, she's a little bit-a evil
Smokey, right as wrong can be
Smokey, she could shake the very devil
Smokey put the sweat on me
Yeah, Smokey put the sweat on me
Oh, Smokey put the sweat on me
Yeah, Smokey put the sweat on me
