Lyrics Ten More Miles To Louisiana - Tony Joe White

As I'm walking down this highway
With the rain beating down upon my head
There ain't nobody going my way
But I remember a sign that I read

Only ten more miles to Louisiana
Only ten more miles for me to bear
Only ten more miles to Louisiana
Only ten more miles and I'll be there

I've been walking for two weeks now
Can't catch a ride now
No matter how hard I try
I can't remember when I've eaten
And my throat is getting mighty dry

Only ten more miles to Louisiana
Only ten more miles to someone who cares
Only ten more miles to Louisiana
Only ten more miles and I'll be there

Only ten more miles to Louisiana
Only ten more miles and I'll be there.
