New Orleans

[Verse 1]

She followed the man she loved

All the way to New Orleans

She come back broken-hearted and mean

[Verse 2]

She tried to escape the pain

But sometimes it's all that's real

There's no excuse for living pain free

That's the deal

[Chorus]

It's a bitch, ain't it babe

To live while you're young

I'm crushed that the world turned over so soon

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]

A pile of old memories

Just lying all around

Seems like everywhere I look

I've fallen to the ground

[Verse 4]

And I can't help it if it's over babe

You can't help it, though you tried

Your poor little soul is wearing pretty thin

[Chorus]

It's a bitch, ain't it babe

To live while you're young

I'm crushed that the world turned over so soon
