Starvin' Artist
I got the blues
Cause Katrina soaking up My shoes
Got me a cold, due to my wet feet
Yet, i got the urge to visit Grant Street
Although, i wish on a four leaf clover
For this day to do all over
Where everything is in tip-top shape
But, for that, i need a Miracle in a cape
A heroic being to drop from the sky
To bring back all my people who did die
So, we could be a family, again
And, i could taste some good din-din
Eat me some fried chicken and potato salad
As i snap my fingers to an old jazz ballad
While getting my groove on like Marvin Gaye
If i could have back my life would i sing: Oh Happy Day!!!
