Crescent City - 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 ever crossed

Over Pontchartrain

Tu le ton son ton, 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 bons temps rouler

And take rides in open cars

My brother knows where the best bars are

Let’s see how these blues will do

In the town where the good times stay

Tu le ton son ton, 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 le ton son ton, 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
