New Orleans (Acoustic)

New Orleans (Acoustic) - Rancid

Well I went south

With a case of survival

To amend my heart that's paper thin

You see I felt her words

And her images filed

I'm gonna carry my heart to New Orleans

I have no home to go

So I wander awhile

Coast to coast

From sin to sin

From the coldest shores

To the warmest islands

Been around the world back to New Orleans

Well she's got pride

Like a million lions

She's got a scar

On her velvet face

She's got a smile

Like a newborn child

She's gotta walk

A Stoic Grace

I never slept that night

Until my arrival

I romanticized a long embrace

You see I lost my tongue and burned my Bible

But made it back home to New Orleans

Well she's got pride

Like a million lions

She's got a scar

On her velvet face

She's got a smile

Like a newborn child

She's gotta walk

A Stoic Grace

Well I held my breath

And I swam for miles

When all was lost

And hell took place

You see it rained all night

And the city she flooded

It rained all night in New Orleans

Yeah it rained all night in New Orleans

Yeah it rained all night in New Orleans

Yeah it rained all night in New Orleans
