lirik lagu john craigie – preservation hall
on the corner of dauphine and dumaine, i picked up a trumpet and i started to play
i hit 25 blue notes all in a row, the crowd dispersed headed for the next show
a creole girl taught me to dance watched me kick out my legs and throw up my hands
she said there’s room in this city for a guy with no pity, for himself or anybody else
chorus:
i lost every dollar down in the quarter
i won ‘em backfrom all the pimps and the lawyers
they threw me their coins, i sang ‘em my songs
now im sipping my whiskey down in preservation hall
i exposed myself for a couple of beads, got thrown in a tuba by the nopd
i got blowed by a 400 pound man, saying, get the h-ll out of my instrument
played my banjo, down in jackson square, sang out loud so the good lord would know i was there
this spanish moss feels like all the short hairs that grow
on my baby where i lay my head when i get home
chorus :
verse 3:
played my banjo, down in jackson square, sang out loud so the good lord would know i was there
they told me my fortune, they told me it clear, they said you go back to frisco but your heart stays here
chorus:
