Louisiana RIP
We've done it all
Everything they said to do
Don't you forget
The locket Pappy gave you
I'll grab the car
A whole life left in the rear view
Eyes to the west
Tonight we're coming straight through
Rains'll come and winds'll blow
Pray to god the levees hold
Under jet black stars
Tonight you might feel all alone
But you're an archipelago
Even with your scars
Your momma called
She said that they can venmo you
Money to stay
A few nights in a hotel room
We don't have enough
Lil Mamas gotta eat for two
And so we wait for days
The weather channel left on mute
Rains'll come and winds'll blow
Pray to god the levees hold
Under jet black stars
Tonight you might feel all alone
But you're an archipelago
Even with your scars
It's easy to pretend you've got the answers
when you've never packed your life into a damn sedan
Never run from haters- only Mother Nature
You call your family friends, fill up the car again
Too easy to pretend, wherever I may roam- it wasn't much but it was home
Rains'll come and winds'll blow
Pray to god the levees hold
Under jet black stars
Tonight you might feel all alone
But you're an archipelago
Even with your scars
If the city's going under, then the city's gonna dance
You can put it on a postcard, running down a streetcar, hurricane at hand
So get down little lady, the queen of Crescent City
If the city's going under, you dance to the thunder, while you've got the chance
Everything they said to do
Don't you forget
The locket Pappy gave you
I'll grab the car
A whole life left in the rear view
Eyes to the west
Tonight we're coming straight through
Rains'll come and winds'll blow
Pray to god the levees hold
Under jet black stars
Tonight you might feel all alone
But you're an archipelago
Even with your scars
Your momma called
She said that they can venmo you
Money to stay
A few nights in a hotel room
We don't have enough
Lil Mamas gotta eat for two
And so we wait for days
The weather channel left on mute
Rains'll come and winds'll blow
Pray to god the levees hold
Under jet black stars
Tonight you might feel all alone
But you're an archipelago
Even with your scars
It's easy to pretend you've got the answers
when you've never packed your life into a damn sedan
Never run from haters- only Mother Nature
You call your family friends, fill up the car again
Too easy to pretend, wherever I may roam- it wasn't much but it was home
Rains'll come and winds'll blow
Pray to god the levees hold
Under jet black stars
Tonight you might feel all alone
But you're an archipelago
Even with your scars
If the city's going under, then the city's gonna dance
You can put it on a postcard, running down a streetcar, hurricane at hand
So get down little lady, the queen of Crescent City
If the city's going under, you dance to the thunder, while you've got the chance
