New Orleans, the French Quarter Her eyes illuminate in the streets Jazz bands dance with her spirit As the enchantment of the night begins Her soul, out of body, out of mind Like water, boundless, dances with devils Under street lamps, in our world Marionette strings sever into liberation Oh! What freedom, to be, to exist As an experience, unable to be captured Not by the words that bind her to the pages, Nor world which demands of her All the while she knows, She doesn't owe it a **** thing.

What freedom, to be, to exist As an experience, unable to be captured Not by the words that bind her to the pages, Nor world which demands of her All the while she knows, She doesn't owe it a **** thing.
