Nola Redacted
We've got jazz on every corner,
Bourbon's just around the block
If you need a quiet place,
I can take you to The Locks
You're probably here for the Quarter,
Maybe Mardi Gras too
Come around next year,
And you can join the Krewe!
Come for the beignets
Stay for a "Jambalaya, and a crawfish pie and a file gumbo!"
Enjoy the game, while you stuff your face
Cheerin' Geaux Tigers Geaux!
To get the full experience,
Embrace the magic our city offers you
Get your palm read, grab a mojo bag
From Marie Laveau's House of Voodoo
When Sunday comes,
We'll gather 'round the Dome,
We'll be singing Who Dat
'Till The Saints come marching home!
If you ever find yourself
Within our city limits
I sincerely hope
That you enjoy your visit!
