about

This track and track 5 are from the score I was asked to write for a musical about New Orleans during Hurricane Katrina.

lyrics

We got the delta of the mighty Mississipp’
Dr. John’s patois – oh really quite hip
Shotgun houses from front to rear
Just being humble, just being clear
People call us crazy, but we still want to live here!

We got a real rich French and Spanish history
Who can say no to beignets and chicory?
Huey P’s name is something we hold dear
Just being humble, am I being clear?
People call us crazy, but we still want to live here!

We got potholes the size of a country or two
I do love my gumbo with a spicy roux
Six feet below sea level, Green Wave to cheer
Just being humble, hoping to be clear
People call us crazy, but we still want to live here!

Humidity and heat melts you on the spot
Buried ‘bove ground and the music’s scorchin’ hot!
Big Easy’s the norm, back at ‘cha next year
Just being humble, did I make myself clear?
People call us crazy, but we still want to live here!
