Lyrics I'll Come Back to New Orleans - Rusty Cage

The shallow water shimmers in the street light,
The neon signs can't escape the eye,
The smell of fish and spice, a smell of which can mix so nice,
So take me back here before I die,
And the greatest infection, is that of affection,
And I wouldn't have it any other way,
But what can I say,
Circumstance had brought her to the city,
She was left behind to try and find a cheap hotel to sleep at night,
Well hard times fell and she took to stripping,
Just a 19 year old girl in the grasps of middle aged married men,
And the Bourbon Street bullhorn
Boys bellowed boasts of beautiful girls,
Who dance behind black curtains in the night,
And oh, how that stigma follows, just another slut on drugs,
And through the drunken slander, she held her pride,
And I'll come back to New Orleans,
And I hope to find that you're still waiting there for me,
Cause I'll be back in New Orleans,
If you still want me there,
She'd only been two weeks in the city,
It'd only been two nights for me,
And was it vacation high? It felt so real when we said goodbye,
And I hope this feeling never fades,
And the greatest infection is that of affection,
And I wouldn't have it any other way,
In a city full of devils, I found an angel there,
And fell in love with a stripper but I never saw her dance,
But I'll come back to New Orleans,
And I hope to find that you're still waiting there for me,
Cause I'll be back in New Orleans,
If you still want me there,
And the shallow water shimmers in the street light,
The neon signs can't escape the eye,
And the city sleeps, but I keep on stirring,
So take me back here before I die.
