Anthem of Louisiana USA

Give Me Louisiana
Written by Doralice Fontane
Composed by Dr. John Croom

Give me Louisiana,
The state where I was born
The state of snowy cotton,
The best I've ever known;
A state of sweet magnolias,
And Creole melodies
Oh give me Louisiana,
The state where I was born
Oh what sweet old memories
The mossy old oaks bring
It brings us the story of our Evangeline
A state of old tradition,
of old plantation days
Makes good old Louisiana
The sweetest of all states.

Give me Louisiana,
A state prepared to share
That good old southern custom,
Hospitality so rare;
A state of fruit and flowers,
Of sunshine and spring showers
Oh give me Louisiana,
The state where I was born
Its woodlands, Its marshes
Where humble trappers live
Its rivers, Its valleys,
A place to always give
A state where work is pleasure,
With blessings in full measure
Makes good old Louisiana
The dearest of all states.

Give me Louisiana,
Where love birds always sing
In shady lanes or pastures,
The cowbells softly ring;
The softness of the sunset
Brings peace and blissful rest
Oh give me Louisiana,
The state where I was born
The smell of sweet clover
Which blossoms everywhere
The fresh new mown hay
Where children romp and play
A state of love and laughter,
A state for all here after
Makes good old Louisiana
The grandest of all states.

[elementaldragon244]

@Harlock4mg People from Cali Normally can't survive cause Louisiana is too hot for them. People in Louisiana are the most friendliest compared to cali where people push you around.

I really like the tune, first time I've heard it. Hopefully I can hear it done by a period time band with the brass and all. Too those who hate living here or don't want to be here then listen, God Bless You Anyhow! By the way, I-10 and I-20 both run east and west and I-49 runs north so pick yourself a direction and head out. You aren't forced to live here. I've been to the People's Republik of Kalifornia, couldn't stand it, people were really prejudiced against non-in staters.
