Knives Of New Orleans (Live At Bon Secours Wellness Arena, Greenville, SC / May 6, 2017)

[Verse 1]

Yeah, I'd give this last wrinkled dollar

In my pocket that I earned

With a hammer and vice

If I could undo some things

And grow me some wings

Fly out of this quarter tonight

[Verse 2]

Yeah, tonight, every man with a TV

Is seein' my clothes

Seein' my face

In the last thirty minutes

I've gone from a person of interest

To a full-blown manhunt underway

[Pre-Chorus]

I did what I did

I have no regrets

When you cross the line

You get what you get

[Chorus]

Tonight, a bleeding memory

Is tomorrow's guilty vein

Your auburn hair on a faraway sea wall

Screamin' 'cross the Pontchartrain

I'm haunted by headlights

And a Crescent City breeze

One wrong turn on Bourbon

Cuts like the knives of New Orleans

[Verse 3]

I'm a ghost dodging bullets

In all of these alleys

Just lookin' for my getaway key

Wrapped up in the night

Hidin' out in plain sight

This grip's getting tight around me

[Pre-Chorus]

Ain't no gettin' out

That I can see

They'll take me dead

If they ever take me

[Chorus]

Tonight, a bleeding memory

Is tomorrow's guilty vein

Your auburn hair on a faraway sea wall

Screamin' 'cross the Pontchartrain

I'm haunted by headlights

And a Crescent City breeze

One wrong turn on Bourbon

Cuts like the knives of New Orleans

Of New Orleans

[Bridge]

What I wouldn't do

For just one more kiss

I'm all out of time

Honey, it's come down to this

[Chorus]

I'm haunted by your hazel eyes

And a Crescent City breeze

One wrong turn on Bourbon

Cuts like the knives of New Orleans

[Outro]

I did what I did

I did what I did

I did what I did

I did what I did
