LYRICS:
HOME SWEET BOURBON STREET [DOUG DUFFEY]
From the carnival of canal, the fast food boom-box fare
To the old oak shade of esplanade and the elegance up there
Lies a neon sleaze arcade where the out of towners meet
In a 24 hour parade down on home sweet bourbon street

Black boys tap dance for spare change, others sing the blues
They'll say "I can tell you 'bruh', where you got them shoes"
Well that's as easy as crawfish pie, you got them on yo' feet
In the heart of new orleans down on home sweet bourbon street

If you've never been to new orleans you ain't never lived
And you ain't never seen the show like the one sin city is

Dealers, debutantes and drags, chile, you just never know
Who is who and who is what and what they'll do for dough
'Cause anything and everything goes and no one is discreet
You can be yo' natch'l self down on home sweet bourbon street

If you've never been to new orleans you aint never lived
And you aint never seen the show like the one sin city is

Girls or boys may ask you if you want to party down
Next day you may be found face up, or down river drowned
You cant never be too careful of the folks that you might meet
Cause you could easily buy the farm down on home sweet bourbon street
