Great song from the best
new band in America...
French Quarter, quarter to four
The town is empty like a nuclear war
The levee broke on Pontchartrain
I'm feeling blue like John Coltrane
Oh its fine baby
Oh I swear its fine, lover
Carpetbagger tried to fix my house
Low baller tried to put me out
At least I got my gospel stone
My house fell into the swamp
Well I need somebody to help me out
I've lost it all but I've got my health
/
You, you oughta know
You've been kicking me around
And I don't want to lose my own home
It ain't no joke; I was raised in this town
The south is in my blood
/
Its in the mud, they were clearing out my house
But I teared it all down to the stud, all this love
Is what's fixing my house, fixing up my house
Solo:
- ,
I ain't no refugee, I'm a person can't you see
Lord I'm humbled from what I see
Oh you are the one that can build me up
I've lost it all but I've got your health
/
You, you oughta know, they've been kicking me around
And I still don't want to leave my own home, it ain't no joke
I was born in this town; the south is in my blood
/
Its in the mud, they're clearing down my house
And tearing everything down to the stud
All this love, is gonna fix up my house; fix up my house, hey hey!
Solo:
/
Oh you, you oughta know, I've lost everything
But I still have my soul, and my home, I believe in you
/
You, you oughta know, I've been kicked around
But no way I'm gonna give up my home, it ain't no joke
I been born in this town, the south is in my blood
/
Its in the mud, you'll be clearing out my house
You're ripping everything down to the stud, all this love, is gonna fix up my house
Fix up my house!
