"New Orleans" lyrics
"New Orleans"
I'd trade all four limbs
For a parade in New Orleans
I'd hold her in a gold chair
On my shoulders like a queen
I'd sway in the four winds
Digging a grave we'd all get in
I'd trade all four limbs
For a parade in New Orleans
I'd hold her in a gold chair
On my shoulders like a queen
I'm afraid of the snake skin
And the suede boots walking in

He drove in a doomed Corvette
Helen was in the passenger seat eating melon and spitting out the seeds
Feeling happy to be alone but still turning a saxophone as cold as stone...

and there are friends around you now. All the days of your life in a line.
All the way it seemed by 89...
But it's not all...
Leif Vollebekk - "Southern United States" Southern United States
I had a dream I was standing beneath the Memphis moon
With William Blake painting and Crosby crooning
And his father was a sailor
Who left his mother young, and so she dressed...
Cass McCombs - "A Girl Named Dogie" A girl named Dogie came to New York
From somewhere hella plain
And brought with her the rain
She broke out from the herd
So her heart could be heard
A girl named Dogie came to the city
To find out...
