Jackson Square
I wanna get my shoes on down to Jackson Square.
We can do just as we choose when we are there.
Sipping mint juleps as we sit and talk
then we’ll take a stroll on that old moon walk.
Esplanade and canal and in between
I love the French Quarter down in New Orleans
We pass the old French Market and Napoleon House
The riverboat calliope is blowin’ loud.
The river road plantations and the old oak trees
The Spanish moss is swaying gently in the breeze
The road is long when you are out on Pontchartrain
But soon you’ll be back in old New Orleans again
The Humphreys, Fats Domino, and Doctor John
The grand parade on Bourbon Street on Mardis Gras.
We passed some good enjoys down in that crescent town
Better food more festive mood just can’t be found
The Cajun and the Creole folks will welcome you
With étouffée, and jambalaya, and boudin too.
Life is Bittersweet
You take life as it comes
You do with it what you must
Sometimes fate will smile on you
Sometimes life isn’t just
Enjoy what you can
of this life that is so fleet
life is cruel and life is kind
Life is bittersweet
Life is bittersweet
Life is bittersweet
Sometimes you’re on top
Sometimes you go down low
Life is just a circular path
We take things as we go
Enjoy what you can
of this life that is so fleet
life is cruel and life is kind
Life is bittersweet
Life is bittersweet
Life is bittersweet
