Pontchartrain Songtext
von Lee Roy Parnell

Driving in across the bridge
I couldn′t ask for more than this
Oh, to see that bayou breeze blowing through her hair
She says she wants to go downtown
So we're riding with the windows down
Barreling down I-10 like we ain′t got a care

And I drive, but I drive real slow
'Cause I wanna let the moment take hold
It's a feeling that words can′t explain
And I hope that it never ends
Just me and my girl rolling down ′cross the Pontchartrain
Oh yeah


Crescent City up ahead
Skyline casts a silhouette
A perfect night for the perfect girl and a lucky man
Oh, yes I am
She ain't one for Bourbon Street
She′s St. Charles and she's Magazine
Oh, and you oughta see that little girl when she starts to dance

She moves like the river runs wild
There′s some crazy in her pretty little smile
It ain't nothing that I′d ever wanna change, oh, as we're riding in
Just me and my girl rolling down 'cross the Pontchartrain
Oh

On some Sunday I may take her hand
That′s for one day ′cause right now I wanna be where I am

Ooh, and I drive, but I drive real slow
'Cause I wanna let the moment take hold
It′s a feeling that words can't explain
And I hope it won′t ever end
Just me and my girl
She's the pearl of my world
Just me and my girl rolling down ′cross the Pontchartrain
Oh, me and my girl 'cross the Pontchartrain
