lyrics

I’m so blue, so blue
Can barely bear the news
It don’t make sense, I don’t know what to do

So sleep, sweet dreams
Ain’t enough we lost the king
Bestest friend and brother he’ll always be

So sing him home Marigny
(OH MARIGNY)

Oh sing home Mid-City
(OH MID-CITY)

Oh sing him home New Orleans
This old town we as thick as thieves
But this might be the bullet that buries me

Hurts so bad, but I know, he’d say let’s start the show
Baby, oh-oh
Pour one for us, save the rest for the soul
Ah so sudden to go
Still we all laughin’, lovin’ you so
So much, the swamp sank the smoke

Blue so blue
Time ticks on as time will do
Hearts hang heavy, but ours beat on for you
Ain’t ever be the same
Wish it weren’t ah thisah’ way
And I, I don’t have the strength

So good night, hit the light
Through thick and thin, until the end
Don’t let go
No-oh
Don’t

Go-oh
Pour one for us, save the rest for the soul
Ah so sudden to go
Still we all laughin’, lovin’ you so
Oh so sanguine, it shows
Back on Banks Street, they’re savin’ your seat
Oh so see you, God knows
I’ll keep ah callin’, callin’ ya home
I’ll call yah home, I’ll keepah’ callin’ you home
So sing him home Marigny
(OH MARIGNY)

Oh sing on home Mid-City
(OH MID-CITY)

Oh sing him home, New Orleans
(OH NEW ORLEANS)

about

Yella Belly New York, New York

Equal parts Texas grit and New York grime, Yella Belly is a feeling set to a rebellious holler, a firecracker spark in a world on fire, a bunch of soft boys making mean music for a weird world.
