Bourbon street Lyrics by Jeff Tuohy

Cocoon

0

I've been living in sin for about a month
Something turns me round it's something that I just
Can't understand, the way I behave
Some people you can never save
On my right hand, I've got a girl on my ear
And in my left hand, I'm throwing back a beer
What can I say? Of me, you steer clear
When I driving down on Bourbon Street, yeah
Every night we through this little soiree
Gonna turn her head until she's mine, all mine
Every night I breed a new disaster
I might be right, I might be wrong
Try to get away and I will bring you right along, so
Sit back, have a seat
Sometimes salty, sometimes sweet
Hard to swallow, but fun to eat
You ain't never leaving Bourbon Street, come on!
When I walk the street people step aside
Twirling my cane and smiling wide
Some would say I'm a carnal slave
I put my hands on what I crave
I'm the mayor of this crazy town
Where the queens will party with the clown
Try to swim with me and you're bound to drown
Throw you a line while you're going down
Yeah, I know this street and I own this crowd
And my only companion is a lightning cloud
I seem real nice and easy to trust
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
I'm gonna lead you a path to self destruct
On this crazy train that I conduct
