Lyrics:
THE MOON ROSE ABOVE THE RIVER
STARS SPARKLED THROUGH THE SWEET GUM
TREES
I STEELED MY SPINE
STOMACH AND LIVER
FOR THE EVENING AHEAD OF ME
HAD TO START IT OFF WITH TURTLE SOUP
AND CHEAP MARTINIS AT COMMANDERS PALACE
THE NIGHT I ATE NEW ORLEANS
NEW ORLEANS STOLE MY HEART
FIRST STOP MUFFALETTA
CENTRAL GROCERY, IT WAS WORTH THE WAIT
NEXT STOP, JAMBALAYA
WENT TO COOP’S PLACE AND I CLEANED MY
PLATE
OYSTERS ROCKEFELLER AT ANTOINES
AND THEN TO BRENNANS FOR BANANAS FOSTER
STOLE MY HEART AND GAVE ME HEARTBURN
HEARTBURN ALL THE WHOLE NEXT DAY
OH BUT NOW I FEEL MY HEART YEARN
FOR SOME FRESH BEIGNETS
AND CRAWFISH ETOUFFEE AT FELIX’S
