Live music is a sound machine, On all four corners, Gilded streets, nearly five in the morning, Pavement feet meet ****** shoes Shuffling down the block. Pigeon claps & high hats, Cat heads & piano chops, Whiskey sours evening gowns, Lemon drops with Father Brown. The St. Claude Shuffle down the boulevard, Where shoes straddle electric wires. Sirens ring & bullets proof, And the blues sing out of shotgun shacks.

The St. Claude Shuffle
Live music is a sound machine, On all four corners, Gilded streets, nearly five in the morning, Pavement feet meet ****** shoes Shuffling down the block. Pigeon claps & high hats, Cat heads & piano chops, Whiskey sours evening gowns, Lemon drops with Father Brown. The St. Claude Shuffle down the boulevard, Where shoes straddle electric wires. Sirens ring & bullets proof, And the blues sing out of shotgun shacks.
This city's done a number on me
