Sprinkle my ashes on frenchmen street
Don't be upset at the news
Just cut me a loose with a soulful song
Don't play no frenchmen street blues Hitch me a ride on a river breeze
To elysian fields so green
And I'll join the spirits
Standin' by to smile
On the backstreets of old New Orleans I did my time in the masquerade
And I ran around with the smooth
And Im gonna paint me a canvas of peace of mind
And let go of my frenchmen street blues See you one night, one night in the sultry dreams
You can drink me a toast as you snooze
Close out my tab in a hour hour
Let go of my frenchmen street blues No don't play, don't play, don't play
No don't play, don't play
Don't play no frenchmen street blues
