Steve Wynn - Strange New World lyrics

Once I was down in New Orleans Mixing Scotch with gasoline The stench was bad, the juice was clean You shoulda heard just what I seen Lightning flashed and split the sky Thunder rolled from way up high Blacked out and hit the ground When I awoke this is what I found Moving fast, moving clean Stepping lightly like a dream Hairs on end, toes curl It's a strange new world Like Rip Van Winkle I was amazed Cuz 20 years was only 20 days I was connected to everyone They knew me and what I'd done Way on top but I don't know why Lord knows I didn't try The King of Swing, The Duke of Earl It's a strange new world I fee alive, I feel free Evolution got a hold on me Moving on but standing still Watch me fly from the windowsill Taking speed just like I should Getting while it's good Got the clams, got the pearl It's a strange new world
