I Wish I Was In New Orleans
Tom Waits Well I wish I was in New Orleans Arm in arm down Burgundy I can see it in my dreams A bottle and my friends and me Hoist up a few tall cool ones Tenor saxaphone calling me home Play some pool and listen to that And I can hear the band begin When The Saints Go Marching In By the whiskers on my chin New Orleans I'll be there I'll drink you under the table Be red nose go for walks Is red beans and rice The old haunts what I wants And wear the dress I like so well Meet me at the old saloon Make sure there's a Dixie moon New Orleans I'll be there And deal the cards roll the dice If it ain't that ole Chuck E. Weiss And Clayborn Avenue me and you Sam Jones and all And I wish I was in New Orleans I can see it in my dreams A bottle and my friends and me New Orleans I'll be thereArm in arm down Burgundy |
