Devil's in NOLA

[Verse 1]

When I first met the devil, she was dancing at a club in New Orleans

She was begging with her body for a dollar, half-collapsed to her knees

Her wicked eyes were hollow, her silver tongue glistened when she'd speak

Her words from a language that I'd heard in my anguishing dreams

[Chorus]

Now, Lord, can you save me from this place that I'm in?

For the floors, they're all painted an awful shade of sin

How I long for the hour that I get to see my lover's face again

[Verse 2]

Thе men with their money, thеy were finding it funny, I believe

They could see it in my eyes all I wanted on that night was to leave

[Chorus]

Now, Lord, can you save me from this place that I'm in?

For the floors, they're all painted an awful shade of sin

How I long for the hour that I get to see my lover's face again

I swear I'll raise her higher, hold her tighter than I ever once did

Now, Lord, can you save me from this place that I'm in?

For the floors, they're all painted an awful shade of sin

How I long for the hour that I get to see my lover's face again

I swear I'll raise her higher, hold her tighter than I ever once did
