Artist/Band: The Oak Ridge Boys
Lyrics for Song: Callin' Baton Rouge
Lyrics for Album: Room Service [1978]



I spent last night in the arms

Of a girl in Louisiana

And though I'm out on the highway

My thoughts are still with her

A strange combination of a woman and a child

A strange situation stoppin' every twenty miles

Callin' Baton Rouge



A replay of last night's events

Roll through my mind

Except a scene or two

Erased by sweet red wine

And I see a truck stop sign ahead

So I change lanes

I need a couple cups of coffee

And a couple dollars change

Callin' Baton Rouge



Operator get me on through

I gotta send my love down to Baton Rouge

Hurry up won't you put her on the line

I want talk to that girl one more time.



Hello Samantha dear, I hope you're feelin' fine

It won't be long until I'm with you all the time

Until then I'll spend my money up right down to my last dime.

Callin' Baton Rouge.


Callin' Baton Rouge

The Oak Ridge Boys deliver a vibrant gospel-rock anthem on their 1978 album Room Service. This track exemplifies the group's signature style, blending traditional Southern gospel harmonies with the electric energy of rock instrumentation. The song features the distinctive four-part vocal arrangement that defined the Oak Ridge Boys' career, showcasing their ability to fuse religious themes with contemporary musical trends of the late 1970s. Recorded during a period when the group was expanding their audience beyond strictly religious venues, the track stands as a testament to their versatility and enduring appeal in the gospel and country genres.
