Well I thought I?d go out to Tulsa
And ride in a rodeo
Red beans and rice sure would be nice
Back where the Mississippi River flows
[Chorus]
And it's a long way back to Vicksburg
Mississippi River is muddy and wide
But it don't seem like much
When sweet Louisiana's waitin' on the other side
Well there's a lot of room up in Canada
Where a man catch his breath
But the men are bold and the women are cold
And you damn near freeze to death
[Chorus]
There's pretty girls in Kansas City
And a man can have a ball
But the women in Ouachita Parish
Drive a young man up the wall
[Chorus]
Well I thought I?d go out to Tulsa
And ride in a rodeo
Red beans and rice sure would be nice
Back where the Mississippi River flows
[Chorus]
'Cause it don't seem like much
When sweet Louisiana's waitin' on the other side
