Louisiana Rain

Snow,
 never Heard of that
I all hear About 
is that Louisiana rain

oh Louisiana 
u know 
that state
with an event called mardi gras all year round
and we just live in the swamp
 yeah 
it’s that state 
the withholder of fluxuating humidity
never known from peeps from the other states
he he he 
its extremely unique

its all untold by that Louisiana rain
you really have no idea what it’s like
how upsetting
how disappointing
come live it through my eyes

no I don’t live in New Orleans
that’s not the only place
in Louisiana
though it’s a common mistake
but if I don’t live in
new Orleans
I must be a swamp
Rug rat 
With an undefined education
Wrong
Totally wrong
Im the girl that knows about that Louisiana rain
I  have an accent 
That has a drawl
Though This place its
Almost as south as it gets
Just 
Don’t include 
Florida in the mixing pot
We are also the only 
State with a parish instead of a county
Aren’t you intrigued? 
Don’t forget the home of gumbo
Rue and our famous jambalaya
Also Lets not forget crawfish cause that’s just the best
we also live in a boot hard to forget
though Our Louisiana rain 
just never told you

Shhh it’s a secret
Its called Louisiana 
the Louisiana rain
