This Property Is Condemned Lyrics - Singles - Maria Mckee

27th wagon, full of cotton 

Was parked outside my chicken shack door 

I kept my crib covered up in satin 

In case my baby came around for more 

 

Now I feel, Daddy, somethin's not the same 

'Cause there's weeds and there's rust 

And the roof won't hold the rain 

 

I remember better days 

Lace in every window and roses 'round the gate 

Now they've chased away all my friends 

And they've locked me out and hung a sign on the fence 

And it says, "This property is condemned" 

 

Take me down the Vieux Carre 

Where a little girl can get a bed or a bite 

If you should see me coughin' 'round the corner 

Won't you mix a little sugar with my tonic tonight? 

 

I can feel like I'm part of the parade 

'Cause I feel like there's bourbon 

Slappin' around in my veins 

 

I remember better days 

Lace in every window and roses 'round the gate 

Now they've chased away all my friends 

And they've locked me out and hung a sign on the fence 

And it says, "This property is condemned" 

 

I got a new tiara, Daddy, take me to the Mardi Gras 

Buy me cotton candy, dress me up in flowers 

Let me be your baby doll, we can ditch that social worker 

In and out the swinging doors on Tchoupitoulas Street 

You may call me jail bait but I ain't too little to take the heat 

 

I can feel phantoms blowin' through my brain 

And I feel like I need someone to make 'em go away, oh 

 

I remember better days 

Lace in every window and roses 'round the gate 

Now they've chased away all my friends 

And they've locked me out and hung a sign on the fence 

And it says, "This property is condemned"
