When I get too much Decatur Street
I'm burned out and I can't find my feet
I'll take United down Esplanade
I'm thinking 'bout my Mid-Ci-ty, baby
Honey you know that you look so fine
Let's go to Whole Foods and let's buy some wine
Girl you know I'll toss a salad too
I'll write a song about me a-a-and you
Have a nightcap at that bar called Pal's
With Michael Aaron spinning records round
He played a song that said this much is true
Some lucky ba*tard's gonna ma-r-r-ry you
Tomorrow morning I'll be gone of course
Can't stay away from that damn Ninth Ward
But I'll be back before the season's through
Just when the leaves are falling
(saxophone solo)
Tomorrow morning I'll be gone of course
Can't stay away from that damn Ninth Ward
But I'll be back before the season's through
Just when the leaves are falling
