Planet Of New Orleans |
Standin on the corner |
Of toulouse and dauphine |
Waitin on marie-ondine |
Im tryin to place a tune |
Under a louisiana moonbeam |
On the planet of new orleans |
In a bar they call the saturn |
And in her eyes of green |
And somethin that she said in a dream |
Inside of my suit I got my mojo root |
And a true love figurine |
For the planet of new orleans |
New orleans — the other planet |
With other life upon it And everythin thats shakin in between |
If you should ever land upon it You better know whats on it The planet of new orleans |
Now Im tryin to find my way |
Through the rain and the steam |
Im lookin straight ahead through the screen |
And then I heard her say |
Somethin in the limousine |
bout takin a ride across the planet of new orleans |
If she was an ace |
And I was just a jack |
And the cards were never seen |
We could have been the king and queen |
But she took me back to her courtyard |
Where magnolia perfume screams |
Behind the gates and the granite |
Of the planet of new orleans |
