They tell me Seven Sisters in New Orleans

That can really fix a man up right

They tell me Seven Sisters in New Orleans

That can really fix a man up right

And I'm headed for New Orleans Louisiana

I'm travelin' both day and night

I hear them say the oldest Sister look

Just like she's 21

I hear them say the oldest Sister look

Like she's just 21

And said she can look right in your eyes

And tell you just exactly what you want done

They tell me they've been hung been bled

And been crucified

They tell me they've been hung been bled

And been crucified

But I just want enough help to stand on the water

And rule the tide

It's bound to be Seven Sisters

Cause I've heard it by everybody else

It's bound to be Seven Sisters

I've heard it by everybody else

Course I'd love to take their word

But I'd rather go and see for myself

When I leave the Seven Sisters

I'll pile stones all around

When I leave the Seven Sisters

I'll pile stones all around

And go to my baby and tell her

There's another Seven Sister man in town

Good morning Seven Sisters

Just thought I'd come down and see

Good morning Seven Sisters

I thought I'd come down and see

Will you build me up where I'm torn down

And make me strong where I'm weak
