Youngblood Bra** Band - Crescent City lyrics

I know that there's something in life that I haven't got As long as I'm living away from my favourite spot I know of a city where you and I gotta go It's always a party and the seafood prices are low Oh that city has called to me and I gotta respond Because I ain't nothing like eating beignets hanging in the Café du Monde Get your boogie on Jackson Square and go on Bourbon Street And then go down to the Sixth Ward and dance to the funky beat 'Cause I gotta be in New Orleans where the bra** bands play I'll have some fill-in gumbo and some étouffée I feel the Crescent City calling me today Because there ain't no doubt my heart and soul lives in New Orleans If ever you're longing to see the other side Then fasten your seatbelt, sit back and enjoy the ride A city is waiting, like nothing you've seen before So take it all in then keep coming on back for more Hear the music that fills the streets, it's a wonderful sound And see the smiles on the faces of everybody around Rebirth plays at the Maple Leaf, Donna's got the Hot 8 And New Birth at Joe's Cozy Corner, oh Lord I can hardly wait 'Cause I gotta be in New Orleans where the bra** bands play I'll have some fill-in gumbo and some étouffée I feel the Crescent City calling me today Because there ain't no doubt my heart and soul lives in New Orleans It lives in New Orleans yeah Come on walking on Jackson Square my darling Come take a walk with me We'll take a stroll down Claiborne Street in the morning Down in New Orleans
