Frenchmen Street Blues

Sprinkle my ashes on frenchmen street

Don't be upset at the news

Just cut me a loose with a soulful song

Don't play no frenchmen street bluesHitch me a ride on a river breeze

To elysian fields so green

And I'll join the spirits

Standin' by to smile

On the backstreets of old New OrleansI did my time in the masquerade

And I ran around with the smooth

And Im gonna paint me a canvas of peace of mind

And let go of my frenchmen street bluesSee you one night, one night in the sultry dreams

You can drink me a toast as you snooze

Close out my tab in a hour hour

Let go of my frenchmen street bluesNo don't play, don't play, don't play

No don't play, don't play

Don't play no frenchmen street blues
