Ghost Town

Everybody tried to warn me
That strange things happen here
They say every February
Fools are gathered on the square
They don't know that in the shadows
There's blood stains on these walls
From the last poor souls who came for Mardi Gras

When you're walking down the street
You ought to know that here in Nola
Its hardly ever what you think so be careful what you drink
And who you invite inside
If you wanna keep your soul
Listen close to what I told ya
Keep your guard up and your head down
When the spirits come around
I'll be your guide
I'll help you survive
In this Ghost Town

Thats the last words that she told me
When she lead me to this room
Lit the candles and poured the potion
That I'm pouring out for you
I know you're thinking you won't drink it
Honey you already did
You don't remember but the bitter taste
It lingers on your lips
So close your eyes
You'll be just fine

When you're walking down the street
You ought to know that here in Nola
Its hardly ever what you think so be careful what you drink
And who you invite inside
If you wanna keep your soul
Listen close to what I told ya
Keep your guard up and your head down
When the spirits come around
I'll be your guide
I'll help you survive
In this Ghost Town

Now that you know what to do
You better do it well
Find Papa Legba lots of souls
Or find yourself in hell

When you're walking down the street
You ought to know that here in Nola
Its hardly ever what you think so be careful what you drink
And who you invite inside
If you wanna keep your soul
Listen close to what I told ya
Keep your guard up and your head down
When the spirits come around
I'll be your guide
I'll help you survive
In this Ghost Town
