Lyrics:
(verse part)
Your smile is fading a bit so I ration it
Don’t think about it
Here where the Mississippi quits
Where its still got a bit of Minnesota in it
No one will give you a thing these days
They’d rather kill it or throw it away
You don’t “do” dark American streets so
If New Orleans is beat
(Bm)
If New Orleans is beat
(G)
If New Orleans is beat
(D)
If New Orleans is beat
(Em)
If New Orleans is beat
(Asus)
Where’s that leave you and me?
(solo part)
