Lyrics:
Home Sweet Bourbon Street [doug duffey]
From the carnival of canal, the fast food boom box fare
To the old oak shade of esplanade and the elegance up there
Lies a neon sleaze parade where the out of towners meet
In a 24 hour parade down on home sweet bourbon street
Black boys tap dance for spare change others sing the blues
Theyll say I can tell you bruh where you got them shoes
Well thats as easy as crawfish pie, you got them on yo feet
In the heart of new orleans down on home sweet bourbon street
If you never been to new orleans you aint never lived
And you aint never seen the show like the one sin city is
Dealers debutantes and drags, chile you just never know
Who is who and who is what and what they do for dough
Cause anything and everything goes and no one is discrete
You can be yo natchl self down on home sweet bourbon street
If you never been to new orleans you aint never lived
And you aint never seen the show like the one sin city is
Girls or boys may as you if you want to party down
Next day you may be found face up or down river drowned
You cant never be to careful bout the folks that you might meet
Cause you could easily buy the farm down on home sweet bourbon street

Such a great song, and SO New Orleans! I have the Changin' Times CD & it's one of my favorites on that CD. Makes me want to be at Mardi Gras!
