Emmylou Harris - Crescent City lyrics

rate me

(lucinda williams)

Everybody's had a few

Now they're talking about who knows who

I'm going back to the crescent city

Where everything's still the same

This town has said what it has to say

Now I'm after that back highway

And the longest bridge I've ever crossed over pontchartrain

Tu les ton sans temps that's what we say

We used to dance the night away

Me and my sister me and my brother

We used to walk down by the river

Mama lives in mandeville

I can hardly wait until

I can hear my zydeco

And laissez le bon ton roulet

And take rides in open cars

My brother knows where the best bars are

Let's see how these blues'll do

In the town where the good times stay

Tu les ton sans temps that's what we say

We used to dance the night away

Me and my sister me and my brother

We used to walk down by the river

Tu les ton sans temps that's what we say

We used to dance the night away

Me and my sister me and my brother

We used to walk down by the river
