New Orleans |
| I cried when I heard about New Orleans |
| I cried when I heard about New Orleans |
| So much destruction the likes you’ve never seen |
| And you just want to go back to how she used to be |
| The streets are soaked and only darkness down in New Orleans |
| The streets are soaked and only darkness down in New Orleans |
| And it’s bringing out the demons you see |
| It turns refugees into thieves |
| I wept for a man who had lost his wife |
| I wept for a man who had lost his wife |
| He said he tried to hold on to save her life |
| But the water was too strong that she slipped away into the night |
| When the people saw don down in New Orleans |
| When the people saw don down in New Orleans |
| The river ran over the homes of men |
| And the feelings of conscience settle in |
| It’s been a while since I last saw New Orleans |
| It’s been a while since I last saw New Orleans |
| And I regret that she’ll be forever changed |
| She’s wounded and never be the same |
| I cried when I heard about New Orleans |
| I cried when I heard about New Orleans |
| So much destruction the likes you’ve never seen |
| Under years that just began to sing |
| And you just want to get back to New Orleans |
| I hope we can get back to New Orleans |
