Garth Brooks - Callin' Baton Rouge Lyrics






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
Such a strange combination of a woman and a child
Such a strange situation stoppin' every hundred 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 cup of coffee
And a couple dollars change
Callin' Baton Rouge

Operator won't you put me 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

Hello Samantha dear, I hope you're feelin' fine
And it won't be long until I'm with you all the time
But until then I'll spend my money up right down to my last dime
Callin' Baton Rouge

Operator won't you put me 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

Callin' Baton Rouge
Sweet Baton Rouge, my Baton Rouge

    You mean "the" classic. He just covers the song. Even though Garth is amazing the best version is still by New Grass Revival.

    r.... ....

    You mean the “oak ridge boys” dang it originally

    r.... ....

    This man still number 2 highest certified music artist in US, barely passing Elvis and only losing out o the Beatles.

  16. R.... ....

    Is it just me or since the late 90s he has looked more like a dad

    Grtz from The Netherlands

  23. S.... ....

    He’s ripping off John Michael Montgomery’s act

    S.... ....

    Putting on weight, style of hat, looking down stomping and exaggerated upper body movements.

  24. R.... W....

    I really wanna see him take on I dunno 50 UFC fighters.

  30. S.... T....

    GEAUX TIGAHS!!!!!

  31. A.... L....

  34. O.... L....

    Is that Alex Jones conspiracy theorist!?!? Lol

  35. M.... L....

    Got to see all of them in concert this year in April, and I bawled like an idiot. I was raised on Garth Brooks. He was the number one on my bucket list. ❤️

    M.... L....

    Same! But I saw him in May. Best show I've ever been too!

  36. R.... W....

    Where are the bodies G.

  37. J.... L....

  47. T.... C....

  48. B.... N....

    Tom segura brooks

  49. M.... Y....

    Looks like he’s lip syncing

    M.... Y....

    Nope he never had he's said if he had to he won't perform

    M.... Y....

    Hes seriously lip syncing that song! 😅😅

  50. a.... 7....

    Polly shore on bass

  51. J.... S....

    Ty England playing with Garth again

    J.... S....

    I don't think that's Ty, it looks alot like Bruce Bouton

  52. J.... H....

    This one of my other favorite country songs and I have listened and been a fan of Country Music since 2001 and I did a tribute to The King of Country Music and I did The Cowboy Rides Away and I didn’t miss it up and his name is George Strait and I have listened and been a fan since 2001

  53. K.... R....

    Sounds like a Broadway number haha ♡

  54. M.... F....

    Is that freakin Ty England back with Garth?! It’s like being back in time

    M.... F....

    He's been back with him for a long time now

    M.... F....

    @Kole Dupe I think that's Bruce Bouton. But look who's back on steel guitar! The one and only Steve McClure!

    M.... F....

    I saw that on the CMAs and then just noticed it here!

    M.... F....

    That’s something people should really appreciate about Garth. Not many huge artists like himself keep the lineup he has.

  55. A.... G....

    So he DOES know how to use a regular microphone.

    A.... G....

    A.J. Gray yeah he was moving away before he finished his last word 90% of the time so sounded like he was just cut of midway! Dude he really should know how to operate a Mic!

  56. B.... V....

    Surprised he isn’t lip syncing. Poser

  57. C.... Y....

    Forget the pop Garth, that's the Garth music I love.

  58. F.... B....

    He’s about as country as a Chinese cowboy hat.

  59. J.... R....

    He really should take the plug of chaw out before he tries to sing.

  60. T.... 1....

    i have seen him live 10 times. truly the greatest artist of our generation

  61. D.... T....

    Great version with the add of steel guitar. Garth is a legend

  62. S.... M....

    Must get their hair coloring in bulk

  63. S.... G....

    Such a great performer..... such a fake individual.

  64. J.... W....

    He looks like Eminem’s dad w that beard hahaha

  65. D.... H....

    It's cool to see Steve McClure again!

    D.... H....

    Dillon Harris did you see Ty England there to

    D.... H....

    @Michael Cookston I don't think that's Ty, it looks alot like Bruce Bouton

  66. S.... G....

    I mean yeah he’s good I guess but that steel guitar player and fiddle player killed it.

    S.... G....

    Savage Gamer that’s a fiddle! 😆

    S.... G....

    Clinton Lyle can’t believe i got that wrong for the fact I’m a musician 🤦‍♂️

    S.... G....

    A Fiddle is a Violin. Country boys thought it was too uppity calling it a Violin. Lol 🤠

  67. D.... B....

    Hey that looks like Chris Gains.

    D.... B....

    Ya don't say??

    D.... B....

    Chris Gaines was Garth Brooks alter ego fictional name. I watch the documentary hosted by Garth Brooks about it

    D.... B....

    I was being sarcastic lol

    D.... B....

    More like Wait Gaines

    D.... B....

    too soon dude..... too soon....

  68. A.... ....

    I'm Brazilian and had never heard before the name of this guy, but I watched a video of the best seller artists since the 1960's and came here to know him.

  69. K.... M....

    Love Chris Gaines

  70. b.... D....

    GARTH IS A STUD.

  71. b.... ....

    This was awesome and I think this is the first time I've ever seen Garth without his signature black hat.

  72. A.... M....

    What I would've given to be in that studio. One of my favs. Garth, come to Maryland!

  73. O.... J....

    I'm about to forgotten Father and Son the father he's trying to prove his son that he has what it takes to make it in this world as a singer

    O.... J....

    Off your meds again?

  74. B.... G....

    This plays every Saturday in Tiger Stadium during football season and 102,000 people sing it together for our Tigers

    B.... G....

  75. a.... c....

    Garth Brooks it is time to put your music on iTunes!!

  76. J.... B....

    I’ve always liked Garth’s New Grass Revival cover

    J.... B....

    Which was a cover of the Oak Ridge Boys version.

  77. J.... R....

    Such a strange combination of woman and a child... -Jeffrey Epstein

  78. D.... K....

    Is it just me or is he starting to look a little bit like tom segura?

    D.... K....

    If someone told me that this was a deepfake with Tom Segura's face, I'd believe that person.

    D.... K....

    Garth Segura

    D.... K....

    He learned to sing for sober October

    D.... K....

    I like that...

    D.... K....

    Nice observation, Jeans.

  79. W.... Y....

    Y’all ever heard of Garth Brooks song and thought man, I like this guy!!

    Yeah me neither!!

  80. A.... T....

    He’s short but I would still climb this man like a tree. he’s hot af

  81. L.... S....

    Best concert I’ve ever attended! Stadium Tour

  82. M.... W....

    Shame hes forgotten his UK fans

  83. R.... ....

    GEAUX TIGERS!

  84. S.... M....

    Any time he’s on Ellen he seems rusty . Still Garth but his Ellen performances aren’t his best

    S.... M....

    Stephen McKeown Really?!? I think he sounds like vintage Garth!! Great!!👍👍

    S.... M....

    Don’t get me wrong , he’s “garth” like I said . Compare this to his 94’ 97’ performances and t comes up short . He is in his mid 50’s I get that. Still great

  85. R.... C....

    Yahh but did you ask him where the bodies are hidden?!?

  86. J.... K....

    Garth still bringing that next level energy! 🔥🔥🔥

  87. k.... ....

    Where are the bodies, Garth? Baton Rouge?

    k.... ....

    I like that

  88. A.... B....

    Still got it brother

  89. k.... ....

    Probably the first time a full band has been on Ellen. Usually it's some 20 something rapping to a backing track.

  90. C.... H....

    It seems so funny now to hear someone singing about stopping every hundred miles to make a phone call!

    C.... H....

    Chris Herbolsheimer I used to have Sprint, so I knew the feeling. I have Verizon now so I’m great.

    C.... H....

    Gabez82 .
