I had a girl in New Orleans
Belle Parker was her name
She'd hold me down and tell me
Everything's gonna be alright
Preached to me of blue skies,
Silver linings through the rain
And if I ever needed anyone to blame...
Oh Blame time, daddy
Blame the rain
Safe but somehow, time's the same
Tell me anything, Just tell me loud
Blame time, daddy, blame the rain
Repeat intro riff: (x2)
The velvet queen of New Orleans
Belle Parker was her name
She'd walk the town,
with a drink or two and the southern night
Louisiana sunshine,
Mississippi rain
And if I ever needed anyone to blame...
(Chorus)
(Instrumental Verse)
She'd love to talk, and I'd let her,
Belle Parker was her name
She'd come around again, and again, and again
I'm waiting for the sunshine
And sitting through the rain
And If I ever needed anyone to blame...
