[Verse 1]
My mind is rounding down the Jackson
My mind is running down the Jackson
Then we have time round and round Jackson town
Sun is setting down on Jackson
The sun setting down on Jackson
Gather round the sound as they come down Jackson town
[Verse 2]
And although your name you do not know number
Waking the devil from the slumber
I'll rather be once in a lifetime
Then ever once in awhile
[Verse 3]
The moon is shining down on Jackson
And the moon is shining down on Jackson
I'm south bound and won't be found in Jackson town
[Chorus]
You know your name
You don't know my number
Waking the devil
From her slumber
Rather than once in a lifetime
Meet me again
Down in the city of sin
[Outro]
The sun is rising on New Orleans
Why don't the sun shine down on me
The morning sun shines down on me in New Orleans
The morning sun shines down on me in New Orleans
