  • I traveled from Texas to old Louisanne
    Through valleys, o'er mountains and plains
    Both footsore and weary I rested awhile
    On the banks of the old Pontchartrain.
    The fairest young maiden that I ever saw
    Passed by as it started to rain
    We both found a shelter beneath the same tree
    On the banks of the old Pontchartrain.
    We hid from the shower an hour or so
    She asked me how long I'd remain
    I told her that I'd spend the rest of my days
    On the banks of the old Pontchartrain.
    I just couldn't tell her that I ran away
    From jail on a West Texas plain
    I prayed in my heart I would never be found
    On the banks of the old Pontchartrain.
    Then one day a man put his hand on my arm
    And said I must go west again
    I left her alone without saying goodbye
    On the banks of the old Pontchartrain.
    Tonight as I sit here alone in my cell
    I know that she's waiting in vain
    I'm hoping and praying someday to return
    On the banks of the old Pontchartrain
