Dixie Drug Store - Grant Lee Buffalo[00:00:00]

Ooh Jambalaya[00:00:12]

Ooh Jambalaya[00:00:17]

It was muggy July around supper time[00:00:22]

When I pulled into New Orleans[00:00:25]

I got dropped off at South Rampart Street[00:00:28]

I was hungry for a plate of greens[00:00:30]

I made my way down the banquette[00:00:33]

Where I could see an open door[00:00:35]

And overhead a sign made of painted pine read[00:00:38]

The Dixie Drug Store[00:00:42]

Peppers and roots were hanging[00:00:44]

From the rafters above[00:00:46]

There were oils and sprays all on display[00:00:49]

For money luck and for love[00:00:52]

I reached down to pick one up[00:00:55]

When a dark hand grabbed my arm[00:00:57]

And before I could see just who it was[00:01:00]

She said you don't want that charm[00:01:03]

Ooh Jambalaya[00:01:08]

The last man to walk that thing out of here[00:01:12]

Just up and disappeared[00:01:14]

Found his wallet and his wingtip shoes[00:01:17]

Near a tombstone down in Algiers[00:01:20]

What you need my travelling friend[00:01:22]

Is a place to wash your jeans[00:01:25]

And I wouldn't be the least surprised[00:01:28]

If you were hungry for a plate of greens[00:01:30]

She beckoned me on up the stairs[00:01:33]

For she'd done made up her mind[00:01:36]

Said take off your hat and kick off your boots[00:01:39]

And leave your pride behind[00:01:42]

Ooh Jambalaya[00:01:52]

She took me down to a secret place[00:02:01]

In the bayou of her blankets[00:02:04]

She offered to share her bourbon[00:02:06]

I thanked her then I drank it[00:02:09]

Thru a small crack in the ceiling[00:02:12]

Burst the Louisiana moon[00:02:14]

It shone down on our bodies[00:02:17]

And we began to croon[00:02:20]

Like a couple of coyotes[00:02:23]

We were howling thru the night[00:02:25]

And I swear they were a beatin' those[00:02:28]

Congo drums outside[00:02:31]

Ooh Jambalaya[00:02:34]

We laughed until the mornin'[00:02:39]

By then my pants had dried[00:02:42]

I picked up my hat and pulled on my boots[00:02:45]

And I gathered up my pride[00:02:48]

I figured she had done stepped out[00:02:50]

I didn't see her anywhere[00:02:53]

And I set out to find her[00:02:56]

I headed on downstairs[00:02:59]

Got down to the bottom[00:03:01]

I couldn't believe my eyes[00:03:04]

Gone were all the bottles[00:03:07]

And the remedy supplies[00:03:09]

Ooh Jambalaya[00:03:13]

I shouted out for Marie[00:03:18]

I darted out the door[00:03:20]

An old man on the wooden porch said[00:03:23]

What you in there for[00:03:26]

Son you got no business[00:03:29]

The hoodoo store's been closed[00:03:31]

Long as I remember[00:03:34]

A century I suppose[00:03:37]

But Mister I just spent the night[00:03:40]

With a young gal named Laveau[00:03:42]

He said the Widow Paris[00:03:45]

Done had a little laugh on you[00:03:47]

I said you mean to tell me[00:03:51]

That was the voodooin'[00:03:53]

He nodded yes none other[00:03:56]

The Queen of New Orleans[00:03:59]

Ooh Jambalaya[00:04:07]

Ooh Jambalaya[00:04:13]

Ooh Jambalaya[00:04:30]

Ooh Jambalaya[00:04:38]

Ooh Jambalaya[00:04:52]
