New Orleans

lyrics

new orleans

she said she loved the country
i wanted to believe
i'd give her what she needed
she'd never leave

like a fool i trusted
it was love that made me blind
she left for New Orleans
left me behind

the city has its pleasures
and bright lights to be sure
now it's got all the starlight
that shines on her

i know i could've found work
the choice wasn't mine
she left for New Orleans
left me behind

time spent alone can be dangerous
it's best to stay out of doors till sleep
the promise of the evening doesn't cheer me
it's just another promise she didn't keep

she said she loved the country
i wanted to believe
i could give her what she needed
she'd never leave

when i woke up this morning
found i was wrong
she left for New Orleans
hope was gone
