All, you old-time queens, from New Orleans, who lived in Storyville You sang the blues, try to amuse, here's how they pay the bill The law step-in and call it sin to have a little fun The police car has made a stop and Storyville is done Pick out your steamboat, pick yourself a train - a slo-ow train Pick out your steamboat, pick yourself a train - a slo-ow train They made you close-up they'll never let you back - won't let you back Go buy your ticket or else you walk the track No use complaining, blue sky's follow rain - the cold-old rain No use complaining, blue sky's folow rain - the cold-old rain Just say farewell now and get your one last thrill - your one last thrill Just say farewell now, farewell to Storyville No use complaining, blue sky's follow rain - the cold-old rain Just say farewell now, farewell to Storyville Just say farewell now and get your one last thrill - your one last thrill Just say farewell now, farewell to Storyville
