Lyrics

Not Even New Orleans
Mark Elliott & Tim Johnson


Here I am again on Saint Charles Avenue
Jazz is in the air Magnolias are in bloom
Laughter?s on the streets and in every small café
They?re serving up romance and Crawfish E?touffe
I thought when I came back to this town
It would turn my life around

Not even New Orleans can make me feel better
It hurts to remember all the good times we had
And it makes me so sad that even the memories
Of you loving me in this old Cajun town
Just brings me down
Not even New Orleans can save me now

I could take a tour of some famous haunted home
But I don?t know why I would I?ve got ghosts of my own
I brought them down here with me and I?ll take them when I leave
When you?ve got a broken heart it?s time you really need
I guess there?s not one place in this world
I could go to get over you girl

Not even New Orleans can make me feel better
It hurts to remember all the good times we had
And it makes me so sad that even the memories
Of you loving me in this old Cajun town
Just brings me down
Not even New Orleans can save me now
Not even New Orleans can save me
