Bm A
I spent last night in the arms of a

And though I'm out on the highway

Such a strange combination of a
woman and a child
Such a strange situation stoppin'
every hundred miles callin' Baton Rouge
(then play D for the fiddle part)
Chorus:
D (play D all the way through)
Operator, won't you put on through?
I gotta send my love down to Baton Rouge
Hurry up, won't you put her on the line?
I gotta talk to the girl just one more time.

then I'll spend my money up
D G
right down to my last dime,
A
call-in Baton Rouge
