CRAWFISH ALLEY
TALKIN' 'BOUT DOWN SOUTH Y'ALL LOUISIANA WAY
CRAWFISH ALLEY IS A PLACE I KNOW
IT'S SOMEWHERE I USED TO GO
SOME MIGHTY FINE LOOKIN' LADIES THERE
THEY'LL EASE YOUR MIND TAKE AWAY YOUR CARES
MET ME A LADY NAME' MARIE
AN' LOST MY HEART WHEN SHE GAZED AT ME
I WAS LOOKIN' DOWN THE BARREL OF A LOADED GUN
NOWHERE TO HIDE AN' NOWHERE TO RUN
YEAH CRAWFISH ALLEY BREAKS ALL THE RULES
IT SHAKES STRONG MEN AN' TURNS 'EM INTO FOOLS
CRAWFISH ALLEY WAS A LIVING HELL
IT'S A PLACE I KNOW OH TOO WELL
IN THE FRENCH QUARTER OF NEW ORLEANS
YOU'LL LOSE YOUR MIND FULFILL YOUR DREAMS
MET ME A LADY NAME' MARIE
I LOST MY HEART WHEN SHE LOOKED AT ME
CAUGHT IN THE CROSSHAIRS DEAD TO RIGHTS
LIKE A DUMB OL' DEER IN THE BRIGHT HEADLIGHTS
HEY CRAWFISH ALLEY BREAKS ALL THE RULES
IT SHAKES STRONG MEN AN' THEN TURNS 'EM INTO FOOLS
YEAH CRAWFISH ALLEY TAKES ALL THE BLAME
IT'S WHERE MY LIFE FOREVER CHANGED
MARIE SHE WEAVED A MAGIC SPELL
IF IT WAS VOODOO I CAN'T TELL I DON'T KNOW
SHE STOLE MY HEART AN' THEN MY SOUL
MAYBE SHE'S RELATED TO MARIE LAVEAU
HEY CRAWFISH ALLEY BREAKS ALL THE RULES
IT SHAKES STRONG MEN AN' TURNS 'EM INTO FOOLS
YEAH CRAWFISH ALLEY TAKES ALL THE BLAME
IT'S WHERE MY LIFE FOREVER CHANGED
TALKIN' 'BOUT CRAWFISH YEAH CRAWFISH ALLEY
CRAWFISH YEAH CRAWFISH ALLEY
TALKIN' BOUT CRAWFISH ALLEY
