Nobody But A Fool Or A Preacher Lyrics - Playing To An Audience Of One - David Soul

Mr Jimmy makes a drink with thirty-four different liquors 

He pours it all in one shot glass 

You can count the layers 

His little wooden bar-room 

Betsy tried to blow it away 

They just mopped it back up some you know 

It's all two-lane today 

If you asked me my opinion 'bout it I'd have to say 

There's nobody but a fool or a preacher 

Would not love it in New-Orleans 

I said there's nobody but a fool or a preacher 

Would not love it in New-Orleans 

Look out 

The Mardi Gras is coming up soon 

I'm gonna be down the street with the music and the booze 

Them Crescent City ladies they love to tease and flirt 

They steal your heart with one smile 

And a flip of their skirt 

They steal my heart with one smile 

And a flip of their skirt 

I'm gonna dance until I'm dizzy 

Laugh until it hurts, whoa whoo 

Miss Delacroix can tell you all about your fortunes 

She knows everything there is to know about hoodo, 

charms and potions 

She can answer any questions you might care to ask 

What to look for in your future 

How to cover up your past 

She said she found it likely, I'd be coming back there fast 

There's nobody but a fool or a preacher 

Would not love it in New-Orleans 

I said there's nobody but a fool or a preacher 

Would not love it in New-Orleans 

There's nobody but a fool or a preacher 

Would not love it in New-Orleans 

I said there's nobody but a fool or a preacher 

Would not love it in New-Orleans
