New Orleans

I took a walk in a crowded town Where if you breathe too deeply You're likely to drown But the airs not as thick as the sin I found In New Orleans. Rainbow necks on drunken girls Who'd sell their souls for a string of pearls I hope there's no place in the world Like New Orleans New Orleans is a spooky place You can see the devil smiling in every face Voodoo babies put their pins in place In New Orleans I took a walk in a crowded town I saw a dark boy get beaten down I watched him turn to a reddish brown In New Orleans I held his hand and I sang my song I was lying when I told him there was nothing wrong I won't be back for sometime long Not in New Orleans New Orleans is a spooky place You can see the devil smiling in every face Voodoo babies put their pins in place In New Orleans
