[verse 1]

It was so damn hot, the air so thick

Even Sister Magnolia was wearing nothing but her slips.

Sittin' on the corner waiting for his whites to dry

Spittin' on his shoes, trying to get a little shine

He says:

(chorus)

I love this city, I love it all my life

I was born here and this is where I wanna die

If a hurricane comes, if the levees break

With my one true love I will wash away

[verse 2]

You could hear the music, pourin' out into the streets

With a soul you'll never know, with a look you'll never see

Walk the border walk, like she walk on me

The struggle in her eyes and the flower in her hair

She says:

(chorus)

I love this city, I love it all my life

I was drawn here like water is to the sky

And if the hurricane comes, if the levees break

The lord o' this nation will wash away

[verse 3]

You could see the colours, smell the chicory

You could feel the heart poundin' outta beat

Over in the corner there's an angel singin' songs

To ease a troubled mind and-a help us carry on

(chorus)

I love this city, I love it all my life

I was born here and this is where I wanna die

If a hurricane comes, if the levees break

Then my one true love

Will wash away

(jazz interlude, fades away)


Mirror lyrics:

(jazz interlude, fades away)

Will wash away

Then my one true love

If a hurricane comes, if the levees break

I was born here and this is where I wanna die

I love this city, I love it all my life

(chorus)

To ease a troubled mind and-a help us carry on

Over in the corner there's an angel singin' songs

You could feel the heart poundin' outta beat

You could see the colours, smell the chicory

[verse 3]

The lord o' this nation will wash away

And if the hurricane comes, if the levees break

I was drawn here like water is to the sky

I love this city, I love it all my life

(chorus)

She says:

The struggle in her eyes and the flower in her hair

Walk the border walk, like she walk on me

With a soul you'll never know, with a look you'll never see

You could hear the music, pourin' out into the streets

[verse 2]

With my one true love I will wash away

If a hurricane comes, if the levees break

I was born here and this is where I wanna die

I love this city, I love it all my life

(chorus)

He says:

Spittin' on his shoes, trying to get a little shine

Sittin' on the corner waiting for his whites to dry

Even Sister Magnolia was wearing nothing but her slips.

It was so damn hot, the air so thick

[verse 1]
