+Dixie Drug Store Intro: B A E B A E It was muggy July, around supper time when I pulled into New Orleans B A E I got dropped off at South Rampart Street, I was hungry for a plate of=20 greens B A E=09 I made my down the banquette where I could see an open door An overhead sign made of painted pine read =91The Dixie Drug Store=92 Peppers and roots were hangin=92 from the rafters above There oils and sprays all on display, for money, luck and for love I reached down to pick one up but a dark hand grabbed my arm And before I could see just who it was, she said "You don=92t want that= =20 charm." "The last man to walk that thing outta here just up and disappeared." "They found his wallet and his wing-tip shoes near a tombstone down in=20 Algiers." "What you need my travelin=92 friend is a place to wash your jeans,"=20 "And I wouldn=92t be the least surprised if you were hungry for a plate o= =92=20 greens." She beckoned me on up the stairs =91cause she=92d done made up her mind She said: "Take off your hat and kick off your boots and leave your pride= =20 behind." She took me down to a secret place in the bayou of her blankets She offered to share her bourbon, I thanked her then I drank it Through a small crack in the ceiling burst the Louisiana moon It shone down on our bodies and we began to croon Like a couple o=92 coyotes we were howlin=92 through the night And I swear they were beatin=92 those congo drums outside We laughed until the morning, by then my pants had dried I picked up my hat and pulled on my boots and I gathered up my pride I figured she had done slipped out, I couldn=92t see her anywhere And I set out to find her and I headed on downstairs I got down to the bottom and I couldn=92t believe my eyes: gone were all=20 the bottles and the remedy supplies I shouted out for Mary, I darted out the door An old man on the wooden porch said: "What you in there for?" "Son, you got no business, the hoodoo store=92s been closed. Long as I=20 remember, a century I suppose." " But, mister, I just spent the night with a young girl named Laveau." He said: "The widow Paris done had a little laugh on you." I said: "You mean to tell me that was the Voodooin'?" He nodded, "Yes, none other - the Queen o=92 New Orleans." =20 \ No newline at end of file
