Louisiana Land

Miss Antoinette, she went out with a song
Selling booze and silver shoes and singing right along
Shotgun and a limousine while the baby dolls march on
Miss Antoinette, she went out with a song
And it's the long way down
Yeah, it's the long way down
Down at the
Maple Leaf, they pack 'em in
We all get sauced, turn down the house so we start all over again
And tonight we'll all get reborn to a couple fifths of gin
Here we go
The rich boys get their money back
When the banks go belly up
But if you're downtown when the levees break
Well, you're **** out of luck, **** out of luck
And over at the place they train the gods
With Stanton on the drums you don't need no one on guitar
And sometimes all it takes is going way too far
And it's the long way down
Yeah, it's the long way down
Aw, it's the long way down
A long way down
And all the rich boys get their money back
When the banks go belly up
But if you're downtown when the levees break
Well, you're **** out of luck
The penthouse paupers need your help
So everybody lend a hand
And maybe they'll get you a real sweet price
On the Louisiana land, alright
Now Christ down on the street with his trombone
And even though the 12 year olds have got it in their bones
Above these 20 blocks no one's alone
And the rich boys get their money back
When the banks go belly up
But if you're downtown when the levees break
Then you're **** out of luck
The penthouse paupers need your help
So everybody lend a hand
And maybe they'll get you a real sweet price
On the Louisiana land
It's the long way down(Louisiana land)
It's the long way down(Louisiana land)
It's the long way down(Louisiana land)
It's the long way down(Louisiana land)
**** out of luck
