lyrics

THE GRAVITY OF NEW ORLEANS

If life was a nickel and death was a dime
I’d spend all my money all of the time
A fistful of dollars to squander at will
And hurricane glasses waiting to fill

Up and down when they fall apart
‘Round and ‘round when they fall apart

The gravity of New Orleans
The gravity of New Orleans

If wishes were horses then bankers would ride
On half-hearted levies with nowhere to hide
The future of family forgot and for sale
With memory markers and fate out on bail

Up and down when they fall apart
‘Round and ‘round when they fall apart

The gravity of New Orleans
The gravity of New Orleans
