Crescent City (Live from Austin City Limits 7/26/1993)

[Verse 1]

Everybody's had a few

Now they're talkin' about who knows who

I'm goin' 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

[Chorus]

"Tu le ton son temps"

That's what we'd say

We used to dance

The night away

Me and my sister

Me and my brother

We used to walk

Down by the river

[Verse 2]

Mama lives in Mandeville

And I can hardly wait until

I can hear my zydeco

And laissez le bon temps rouler

And take rides in open cars

My brother knows where the best bars are

Let's see how these blues do

In the town where the good times stay

[Chorus]

"Tu le ton son temps"

That's what we'd say

We used to dance

The night away

Me and my sister

Me and my brother

We used to walk

Down by the river

[Verse 3]

Everybody's had a few

Now they're talkin' about who knows who

I'm goin' back to the Crescent City

Where everything's still the same

[Outro]

Thank you
