Crescent City Lyrics by Emmylou Harris

Crescent City Lyrics

    (lucinda williams)

    Everybody's had a few
    Now they're talking about who knows who
    I'm going back to the crescent city
    Where everything's still the same
    This town has said what it has to say
    Now i'm after that back highway
    And the longest bridge i've ever crossed over pontchartrain

    Tu les ton sans temps that's what we say
    We used to dance the night away
    Me and my sister me and my brother
    We used to walk down by the river

    Mama lives in mandeville
    I can hardly wait until
    I can hear my zydeco
    And laissez le bon ton roulet
    And take rides in open cars
    My brother knows where the best bars are
    Let's see how these blues'll do
    In the town where the good times stay

    Tu les ton sans temps that's what we say
    We used to dance the night away
    Me and my sister me and my brother
    We used to walk down by the river

    Tu les ton sans temps that's what we say
    We used to dance the night away
    Me and my sister me and my brother
    We used to walk down by the river
