FRENCH QUARTER RE-RUN
 
Marcus Hummon
Jeffery Roach
I hear dancin’ and laughin’
Somebody must have died
Here in the Quarter
Everything’s upside down
Bring me a sweet begnette
Brown sugar on your sexy kiss
Now, everybody ought to live like this
Everybody ought to love like this

CHORUS:
    Apocalypse now on the black and white TV
    Fire breathing dragon on a black kimona sleeve
    Come on Julianna let’s have a little fun
    Here in the Quarter
    Love is a re-run

Came down south
Sixteen yeas ago…
Met Julianna, and I never went back home (never even called)
We’ve been spoonin’ round town minus the setting’s and the silk
And she pierced my ears, she broke my heart
She made my knees weak just standing in the dark

REPEAT CHORUS

Dusty 78 of ol’ Lead Belly
Ain’t heard music like that
At least not lately
Well, there ain’t no new dance steps
When it comes to love making
You be me and I’ll be you
Sweep me cross the room like an old thatched broom

Apocalypse now on the black and white TV
Fire breathing dragon on a black kimona sleeve
Come on Julianna let’s have a little fun
Here in the Quarter...

REPEAT CHORUS
