Blind Bats And Swamp Rats Lyrics - Gregg Allman

New Orleans, red beans 

Mardi Gras 

Feel like acu mais 

French quarters, okra stew 

Voodoo 

Basin bonge 

That old lady lie, red ripe tomatoes 

Comme ci comme ca 

Blind bats, swamp rats 

Breedin' down in Mississippi bottoms 

Singing comme ci va, the juries out 

If you lose, the judge says we die 

They tried to get him off with life 

But how can that be 

'Cause if they get him off with life 

It's death for you and me.

Cajun man cutting sugar cane 

Went home early one night 

Singing la da di da 

Their house gone too far 

The night would sail us surely 

I'll bake a pie 'cause I'm sure she'll get high 

And maybe when I do 

She'll realize by the look in my eyes 

I want my oppo voodoo 

He stepped on his porch as he approached 

And heard the bayou insurance man 

Say never you tell him that you are sick 

So we can get together again 

Photos 

One swing of his knife, 

Got the insurance man and wife 

He laid them out over the yard 

Will someone please call the Parrish sheriff 

They took him to Tulane and Broad 

They tried get him off with life 

But how can that be 

'Cause if they get him off with life 

You know it's death for you and me 

Blind bats and swamp rats 

Waiting on the Cajun man 

Blind bats and swamp rats 

Waiting on the Cajun man 

Blind bats and swamp rats 

Waiting on the Cajun man 

Down on the city Boroughs 

Blind bats and swamp rats 

Waiting on the Cajun man 

Blind bats and swamp rats 

Waiting on the Cajun man....
