New Orleans

Well, I went south with a case of survival

To amend my heart that's paper thin

You see I felt her words and her images follow

I'm gonna carry my heart to New OrleansI have no home to go so I wander awhile

From coast to coast, from sin to sin

From the coldest shores to the warmest islands

I've been around the world, back to New OrleansWell, she's got a pride like a million lions

She's got a scar on her velvet face

She's got a smile like a newborn child

She's gotta walk, a stoic graceI never slept that night until my arrival

I romanticized a long embrace

You see I lost my tongue and burned my Bible

But made it back home to New OrleansWell, she's got a pride like a million lions

She's got a scar on her velvet face

She's got a smile like a newborn child

She's gotta walk a stoic graceWell, I held my breath and I swam for miles

When all was lost and hell took place

You see it rained all night and the city she flooded

It rained all night in New OrleansYeah, it rained all night in New Orleans

Yeah, it rained all night in New Orleans

Yeah, it rained all night in New Orleans
