Second Line Lyrics - Louisiana Love Call - Maria Muldaur

Steam rising off of the river at the break of day 

Light creeping into room 218 at the Beaujolais 

Left you crawling across the floor 

Head ringing, your eyes so sore 

Bloodshot, drowning while you down another bottle away 

The ashtray is overflowing, it's full of gray days 

The devil that you knew one time may be the devil you save 

Get up and find your shoes 

There are some things that you just don't lose 

The street's been a-creeping with the barefooting blues for days 

Call me from the Second Line 

Pour us up some cheap French wine 

Pick up your feet, leave your blues fading to gray 

Come on now cut your soul loose, the Second Line's dancing away 

There's a crowd down under the window in a big parade 

They got a brass band dancing in front, oh umbrellas they wave 

They gonna shake it 'til the sun come down 

They just laid old Moses deep in the ground 

Get yourself together, walk yourself right out of your grave

Call me from the Second Line 

Pour us up some cheap French wine 

Pick up your feet, leave your blues fading to gray 

Yeah, you got to rise up and put on your hat 

You ain't good but you ain't that bad 

The dirge is over, the band's just beginning to play 

Come on now cut your soul loose, the Second Line's dancing away 

Come on now cut your soul loose, the Second Line's dancing away 

The Second Line's dancing away 

The Second Line's dancing away 

The Second Line's dancing away 

The Second Line's dancing away 

The Second Line's dancing away 

The Second Line's dancing away
