Turn up that radio station
Keeps my eyes wide though the signal’s fading
Well it don’t matter anyway
Cause church bells and highway smells
Cut through the cold Kentucky sunrise
It ain’t my own wishing that leads me to the road
That’s taking us apart
It’s taking us apart
I can’t say where I been
Or what I done, but now and again
I catch my wearied eyes staring sideways through the window
Marie, I’ll see you on the other side
Please know I never meant to make you cry
I’d do you better if I could do it all again
But that’s just the way it goes
That’s just the way it goes
Ooowee, sweet Marie
Rock me one more time
I’m rollin home to New Orleans
And leaving my love behind
Birds sing songs of seasons gone
My love sings a song of morning
Well Jesus knows I’ll try to make it
We fought for fun and we fought for gold
But those were the days of old
To every story comes an ornamental curtain
But Jesus only knows
Yeah Jesus only knows
Ooowee, sweet Marie
Rock me one more time
I’m rollin home to New Orleans
And leaving my love behind
That’s just the way it goes
Jesus only knows
Ooowee, sweet Marie
Rock me one more time
I’m rollin home to New Orleans
And leaving my love behind
Broken arms, busted hearts
And a beat up Cadillac
I’m rollin home to New Orleans
And never coming back
Yeah I’m rollin home to New Orleans
And never coming back
