Edit By: 216.73.216.52

(mark d. sanders/bob dipiero/steve seskin)

He was twenty-five, she was twenty-eight
He was home grown country, shed just pulled off the interstate
She bought a dr. pepper, ten dollars worth of gas
She was ovbiously lost but too afraid to ask directions
So he offered her a smile and a stick of beech nut gum
He said where you headed to girl, where are you coming from
She said

New orleans but thats another story
New orleans thats another time
Thats another town, thats another life

First she stayed a day then she stayed a week
Couple of months later they were living on his parents street
He worked the station and she worked the store
And then they had a baby and
Then they had one more little jesse

When she dropped the kids off at the mothers day out
All the ladies had their questions
But they knew not to ask about

New orleans but thats another story
New orleans thats another time
Thats another town, thats another life

Wednesday night supper at the first baptist church
Stranger standin in the doorway
As theyre passin out the dessert
He said go on and pack your bags
Cause Im here to take you home
Im goin back to louisiana
And woman I aint gonna go with out you

Theres a few defining moments in every persons life
When you know what youve done wrong
And you know what youve done right
And before the congregation and her husband and her kids
She says, how dare you even speak to me
After everything you did...in

New orleans but thats another story
New orleans thats another time
Thats another town, thats another life

Thats another town, thats another life
