Lyrics
I went down to New Orleans with a suitcase full of money Flipped a King and found a Queen that loved to call me honey She wore all them fancy clothes, on Sunday wears a hat Some nights she just wears me out, I've never had a love like that Oh, I've never had a love like that Cruisin' down St. Peters past the Preservation Hall Dancing in the graveyard in the throws of Mardi Gras Ran into a stranger, tattoos Flor-de-Lis Pulled a pistol form his boot and pointed it at me You can take my money, you can do me wrong I never have been one to get along You've been out there taking things, but I've been taking names I'm purified by fire, faster than the flame I waved my hand above the ground, the dead begin to rise A blood red moon reflects their bones, in solace, hollow eyes Demon trumpets and trombones fill up the midnight air I did the voodoo that I do and all I did was stare Loud as hell, my legion is [?] Stranger fell down to his knees, his hands up to his eyes I said my name's Dale Morrison, be glad that you're alive You caught me on a good night, [?] she's my Queen So listen little [?] get out of New Orleans You can take my money, you can do me wrong I never have been one to get along You've been out there taking things, but I've been taking names I'm purified by fire, faster than the flame Faster than the flame Faster than the flame Faster than the flame
