New Orleans Is Sinking

New Orleans Is Sinking

(album: Watoosh! - 1999)

Kick it, rockers

Bourbon blues on the street, loose and complete
Under skies all smoky blue green
She said "I can't foresee a dixie dead shake"
So we danced 'til the sidewalk's clean

My memory is muddy
What's this river that I'm in?
I said "New Orleans is sinking, man
And I don't wanna swim"

Colonel Tom, what's wrong? What's going on?
You can't tie yourself up for a deal?
He said, "Hey north, you're south, so shut your big mouth
You gotta do what you feel is real"

My memory is muddy
What's this river that I'm in?
I said "New Orleans is sinking, man
And I don't wanna swim"
