Young temptation Please, don't wink your eyes They got laws in Louisiana Make a grown man cry And I don't want no trouble Beyond the parish line
Please, I beg you Don't try to hold me tight There are those who would help me Not make it home tonight Other eyes are watchin' Beyond the parish line
Love and misfortune Together by some design Could have sure made it easy For gold a fool to find And I don't take no chance Beyond the parish line
Wheels are turning But I let them pass me by I'm gonna walk to the boarder And then I will hitch a ride And I don't trust nobody Till I cross that parish line
I don't trust nobody Till I cross that parish line I don't trust nobody Till I cross that parish line
