Kingfish (2002 Remaster)

歌詞

There's a hundred-thousand Frenchmen in New Orleans In New Orleans there are Frenchmen everywhere But your house could fall down Your baby could drown Wouldn't none of those Frenchmen care Everybody gather 'round Loosen up your suspenders Hunker down on the ground I'm a cracker and you are too But don't I take good care of you Who built the highway to Baton Rouge? Who put up the hospital and built you schools? Who looks after shit-kickers like you? The Kingfish do Who gave a party at the Roosevelt Hotel? And invited the whole north half of the state down there for free The people in the city had their eyes bugging out Cause everyone of you looked just like me Kingfish, Kingfish Everybody sing Kingfish, Kingfish Every man a king Who took on the Standard Oil men And whipped their ass just like he promised he'd do? Ain't no Standard Oil men gonna run this state Gonna be run by little folks like me and you Kingfish, Kingfish Friend of the working man Kingfish, Kingfish The Kingfish gonna save this land
