Going Down to New Orleans ft. Willie K Lyrics

Hey, brother man

Aren't you a little ambitious with that fishing pole in your hand?

Haven't you heard what's going on?

Haven't you seen the news?

You gotta follow me here, man

Let me take you down to where I got to go

Maybe you might see something about what I'm talking about

Pay attention, here we go

I'm going down to New Orleans

Louisiana here I come

I'm going down to New Orleans

Louisiana here I come

Used to fish for my dinner

Now the fishing is done, you know

Well I'm mad as hell

When there ain't no fish to catch

Man it makes me blue

No more bait to fetch

You see, there's oil in the Gulf now

Nothing but memories left

Man, I can't believe it, can you?

I'm going down to Louisiana

To the Gulf of Mexico

Oh yeah, listen up

I'm going down to Louisiana

Got my fishing pole

Told me I can't fish today

They said go home and stay

Ain't that a crock of shit?

Well, I'm mad as I can hell

What about my f'n memories, oh yeah

All so folks can get rich

Son of a bitch please

I know our Gulf is tough but

Enough is just enough

Clean it up, clean it up baby

Got to hold that petition sign up high and say

Now take your dirty rigs out

Only whales need to spout

You got to clean up your dirty mess

To much stress on sacred waters

Please just do your best

For all our sons and daughters

Going down to New Orleans

Louisiana here I come

Going down to New Orleans

Louisiana here I come

I'll be in New Orleans

Until the battle is won
