Down - New Orleans Is A Dying Whore Lyrics

Artist: Down

Album: Miscellaneous

Genre: Rock

  • Songwriters: Philip Anselmo, Jimmy Bower, Rex Robert Brown, Pepper Keenan, Kirk Michael Windstein

The 1800's, before the inception
Of modern day ideals
Fake grip of appeals

Straight to the street run, no barroom virgin
Double vision, cocaine
To a whorehouse of pain

New Orleans is a dying whore
Naked she sleeps on my floor
New Orleans is a dying whore

The spreading highway
To the underwater staircase
Leading up to a black room, to live there you're a fool

Mob world politics, so broke it can't fix
Trapped in a time zone
There's no place like home

New Orleans is a dying whore
If you're not seen break down the door
New Orleans is a dying whore

New Orleans is a dying whore
Stripped down and beat to the floor
New Orleans is a dying whore
Blood covered, stuck to my floor
