Текст (слова) песни: Tragically Hip - New Orleans Is Sinking
Bourbon blues on the street, loose and complete Under skies all smokey blue-green I can`t forsake a dixie dead-shake So we danced the sidewalk clean My memory is muddy, what`s this river that I`m in? New Orleans is sinking man and I don`t wanna swim
Colonel Tom, What`s wrong? What`s going on? You can`t tie yourself up for a deal He said, "Hey north you`re south shut your big mouth, you gotta do what you feel is real" Ain`t got no picture postcards, ain`t got no souvenirs My baby, she don`t know me when I`m thinking bout those years
Pale as a light bulb hanging on a wire Sucking up to someone just to stoke the fire Picking out the highlights of the scenery Saw a little cloud that looked a little like me
I had my hands in the river My feet back up on the banks Looked up to the lord above And said, "Hey man thanks" Sometimes I feel so good, I gotta scream She said Gordie baby I know exactly what you mean She said, she said, I swear to god she said... My memory is muddy what`s this river that I`m in? New Orleans is sinking man and I don`t wanna swim
