Sin City Blues

Merle Haggard, Theresa Haggard, Joe Manuel

I've been making the scenes down here in New Orleans
Where the old Mardi Gras makes the news
It's hard to believe I'd ever want to leave
And I'm living with the Sin City blues

I'm tired of the town, through hanging around
Too many women to choose
I'm sick up and fed, need to leave, clear my head
I'm leaving with the Sin City blues

I'm gonna let this old Sin City go
I'm gonna move up north to Idaho
Maybe settle down Coeur D'Alene
Make myself a new home in the rain

I'm tired of the sleaze and I'm tired of the tease
Burn out on that Bourbon Street blues
I love rice and beans, but I'm leaving New Orleans
Leaving with the Sin City blues

Well, it's goodbye Louisian', I've stood all I can
Did that neon lights, did a few
These times aren't a lot of fun, I got leaving to get done
Leaving with the Sin City blues

And I'm gone now
I'm leaving with the Sin City blues
