OH, AND THE GHOST OF LOUISIANA

MOVE'S WITH GRACE OVER BOURBON STREET

STEAMS LIKE A SAUNA

WITH NEW ORLEANS DRAMA

DOWN IN THE FRENCH QUARTER
G Fmaj7 C
DOWN IN THE FRENCH QUARTER.......

AND AS THE NIGHT BECOMES A BLANKET
EM
AND THE WITCHES PREPARE A BANQUET

THOSE DANCING SHADOWS IN THE DARK

CAN ONLY BE THE GHOSTS OF LOUISIANA

G Fmaj7 C
AND EVERYONE WILL KNOW THAT
G Fmaj7 C
THE DANCING IS MORE THAN SHOW

MOVE'S WITH GRACE OVER BOURBON STREET
EM
THROUGH THE SUMMER HEAT
D EM
SMELL THE CAJUN FOOD AS SHE DANCES

G Fmaj7 C
TO THE MISSISSIPPI DELTA
G Fmaj7 C
OH TO THE MISSISSIPPI DELTA
