Kingfish |
There’s a hundred-thousand Frenchmen in New Orleans |
In New Orleans there are Frenchmen everywhere |
But your house could fall down |
Your baby could drown |
Wouldn’t none of those Frenchmen care |
Everybody gather 'round |
Loosen up your suspenders |
Hunker down on the ground |
I’m a cracker |
And you are too |
But don’t I take good care of you |
Who built the highway to Baton Rouge? |
Who put up the hospital and built you schools? |
Who looks after shit-kickers like you? |
The Kingfish do Who gave a party at the Roosevelt Hotel? |
And invited the whole north half of the state down there for free |
