Artist/Band: Toby Keith
Lyrics for Song: New Orleans
Lyrics for Album: How Do You Like Me Now?! [1999]



He was 25

She was 28

He was home-grown country

She'd just pulled off the interstate



She bought a Dr. Pepper

Ten dollars worth of gas

She was obviously lost

But too afraid to ask directions



So he offered her a smile

And a stick of beachnut gum

Said, "Where you headed to girl?

Where you comin' from?"



chorus:

She said, "New Orleans

But that's another story

New Orleans

But that's another time,

that's another town,

that's another life"



First she stayed a day

Then she stayed a week

A couple months later they were

Livin' on his parents' street

He worked the station

She worked the store

And then they had a baby

And then they had one more, little Jessie

When she dropped the kids off

At the mothers' day out

All the ladies had their questions

But knew not to ask about



New Orleans

'Cause that's another story

New Orleans

That's another time,

that's another town,

that's another life



Wednesday night supper

At the first baptist church

A stranger standing in the doorway

As she's passing out dessert

He said, "Go and pack your bags

'Cause I'm here to take you home

We're going back to Louisiana

Woman I ain't gonna go without you"



There's a few defining moments

In every person's life

When you know what you've done wrong

And you know what you've done right



Before the congregation

Her husband and her kids

She said, "How dare you even speak to me

After everything you did in



New Orleans

But that's another story

New Orleans

But that's another time,

that's another town,

that's another life



Oh that's another time...

that's another town...

that's another life...
