New Orleans Is Stinking Lyrics - Watoosh - Billy Talent

[Originally by The Tragically Hip] 

Alright! 

Bourbon blues on the street, loose and complete 

Under skies all smoky blue green 

I can't forsake a dixie dead shake 

So we danced the sidewalk clean 

My memory is muddy 

What's this river that I'm in? 

New Orleans is sinking man 

And I don't wanna swim 

Colonel Tom, what's wrong? what's going on? 

You can't tie yourself up for a deal 

He said, Hey north you're south shut your big mouth, 

You gotta do what you feel is real 

My memory is muddy 

What's this river that I'm in? 

New Orleans is sinking man and I don't wanna swim
