about

A tribute to the great Bobby Charles

lyrics

Lights On The Bayou

I put your picture in a frame
I put that frame upon the shelf
Went outside to find my trusty double-barrel
Was feeling sorry for myself
I shot up half of my old Homestead
I hit the neighbors windows too
But I missed the picture sitting in the frame
Same as I am missing you

Oh...There’s music in the streets
The city of New Orleans
Oh… Black magic in the air, a voodoo gypsy scare
City of New Orleans

Night Life On the Bayou
Bright Lights, Wanna Try you
Try, try , try you

I took a shot of Southern Moonshine
A couple shots of bourbon too
Had a conference with the voices in my head
They're all I’ve left for talking to
I knew that you were down the hallway
With a man named Sonny Blue
I took a swing at him and missed his jaw
It landed squarely onto you

Oh...There’s music in the streets
The city of New Orleans
Oh… Black magic in the air, a voodoo gypsy scare
City of New Orleans

Night Life On the Bayou
Bright Lights, Wanna Try you
Try, try , try you

Oh...There’s music in the streets
The city of New Orleans
Oh… Black magic in the air, a voodoo gypsy scare
City of New Orleans

Night Life On the Bayou
Bright Lights, Wanna Try you
Night Life On the Bayou
Bright Lights, Wanna Try you
Try, try , try you
