Hillbilly Hellcats - Gypsy Queen lyrics

Your rating:

Down in New Orleans in a shack by the water 
My future found me in the shadows of the quarter 
Fell down an alley off of Bourbon Street
I was growin' half crazy from the crowds and the heat 

Coulda been the spell of the hurricane 
When a voice from the dark whispered my name 
Slipped down a hallway to a dark back room 
Heard a phantom in the dark sing a gypsy tune 

Chorus:
Bon Ton Rouler and a Voulez-Vouz 
Life in the Quarter could be strange and cruel 
Bad luck to talk about the things I've seen 
There's no one meaner than the Gypsy Queen 

I laughed out loud when she spoke of luck 
I didn't recognize the letters she wrote 
'Round a five sided star with the head of a goat 

She read my palm and she told me that 
In my future was the name Lestat 
Then she finished and I had to go 
Next stop the grave of Marie Lavoux 

Chorus.

Went to the graveyard just about midnight 
I saw somethin' flyin' in the pale moonlight 
Next thing I was wakin' and I felt my neck 
There were two little lumps that were kinda wet 

Since that day, I live for the night 
I glide the alleys away from the light 
There's only one way that I'll ever depart 
That's when I leave with a stake in my heart 

Chorus.
