and ink cartoons were created by the cartoonist for reproduction in newspapers.

[La. R.S. 49:155 B "The official song for the state of
Louisiana shall also be the musical composition with words and music by Jimmie
H. Davis and Charles Mitchell, entitled "You Are My Sunshine"...]
The other night, dear,
As I lay sleeping
I dreamed I held you in my arms.
When I awoke, dear,
I was mistaken
And I hung my head and cried.
CHORUS:
You are my sunsine,
My only sunshine.
You make me happy
When skies are grey.
You'll never know, dear,
How much I love you.
Please don't take my sunshine away.
I'll always love you
And make you happy
If you will only say the same
But if you leave me
To love another
You'll regret it all some day.
CHORUS
You told me once, dear,
You really loved me
And no one else could come between
But now you've left me
And love another.
You have shattered all my dreams.

Why weep or slumber, America?
Land of brave and true
With castles and clothing and food for all
All belongs to you.
Ev'ry man a king, ev'ry man a king
For you can be a millionaire
If there's something belonging to others
There's enough for all people to share.
When it's sunny in June and December too
Or in wintertime or spring
There'll be peace without end
Ev'ry neighbor a friend
With ev'ry man a king.

There's a hundred thousand Frenchmen in New Orleans
In New Orleans there are Frenchmen everywhere
But your house could fall down
Your baby could drown
Wouldn't none of those Frenchmen care.
Everybody gather around
Loosen up your suspenders
Hunker down on the ground
I'm a cracker
And you are too.
But don't I take good care of you?
Who built the highway to Baton Rouge?
Who put up the hospital and built you schools?
Who looks after sh**-kickers like you?
The Kingfish do!
Who gave a party at the Roosevelt Hotel
And invited the whole north half of the state down there for free?
The people in the city
Had their eyes bugging out
'Cause everyone of you
Looked just like me.
Kingfish, Kingfish
Everybody sing
Kingfish, Kingfish
Every man a king.
Who took the Standard Oil men
and whipped their ass
Just like he promised he'd do?
Ain't no Standard Oil men gonna run this state.
Gonna be run by little folks like me and you.
Kingfish, Kingfish
Friend of the working man
Kingfish, Kingfish
The Kingfish gonna save this land.

CHORUS:
Louisiana boys, they're raised on politics
Down in the city and out in the sticks.
Louisiana boys want to go all the way.
They wanna be governor someday.
At twenty-one they head to law school
After hours perched high on a bar stool,
Studying hard the laws of their selection
Planning for that future election.
Back at home they open up a practice
Hanging shingles from Buras to Nachitoches,
Charging them fees, fat and huge,
'Cause what they crave is Baton Rouge.
CHORUS
Driving through the capital, they're full of desire.
Ambitious smolder, and then they catch fire.
Along I-10 they can't help dancin'
When they pass the stately mansion.
To get their start they need friends' support,
Mayors and judges in their court,
A few rich folks and power-possessors
And of course the sherriffs and tax assessors.

What has happened down here is the wind have changed
Clouds roll in from the north and it started to rain
Rained real hard for a real long time
Six feet of water in the streets of Evangeline
The river rose all day
The river rose all night
Some people got lost in the flood
Some people got away all right
The river have busted busted through clear down to Plaquemines
Six feet of water in the streets of Evangeline
CHORUS:
Louisiana, Louisiana
They're tryin' to wash us away
They're tryin' to wash us away
Louisiana, Louisiana
They're tryin' to wash us away
They're tryin' to wash us away
President Coolidge came down in a railroad train
With a little fat man with a note-pad in his hand
The President say, "Little fat man, isn't it a shame what the river has done
To this poor cracker's land"

Muddy Waters went to Louisiana to get a mojo hand.
I've been living here all my life, and I still don't understand.
CHORUS:
What's a mojo?
What's a mojo?
I gotta get a mojo
So I can work on you.
People say mojo this. People say mojo that.
Maybe I don't know. Maybe I'm not a hip enough cat.
CHORUS
One day I looked in the dictionary under "mojo."
Wouldn't you know it -- even Webster don't know.
CHORUS
Well, I thought I would find a real old guy, one who would know
So I packed up all my things. To the Delta I did go.
I asked the guy my question. He looked at me right cold.
He thought for a long long time and said, "Son, you don't need to know."
CHORUS
