Saturday Night In New Orleans Lyrics

Jamey Johnson Saturday Night In New Orleans

[Verse 1]
I know a swamp down south
That can't be drained
Little town just across the Pontchartrain
Somewhere around sundown
A crowd starts forming

[Chorus]
Every night is Saturday night in New Orleans

[Verse 2]
Cops out shaking 'em down on Toulouse
Stray dog barkin' at a voodoo head in a noose
Drunk girl running around
In the clothes she was born in
[Chorus]
Every night is Saturday night in New Orleans

[Verse 3]
Cobblestone streets littered with muddy puddles
Painted ladies standing around in huddles
Junkies sleeping it off
While the trumpets roaring

[Chorus]
Every night is Saturday night in New Orleans

[Verse 4]
It's a good day any day you feel no rain
Most days you just drown in the pouring rain
Ain't nobody goin' to church in the morning

[Chorus]
Every night is Saturday night in New Orleans
