Don't waste your time being angry
When a moment's better with a smile
If you feel your time's being wasted
Waste it with me for awhile
Standing at the corner
Just across from Krauss
Waitin' for that driver to take me
Up to my Heavenly house....
I'll see you there (At the foot of Canal Street)
What will they wear? (At the foot of Canal Street)
What will the band be playin'? (At the foot of Canal Street)
What will they be sayin'? (At the foot of Canal Street)
Yeah is your father buried there?
Does your mother pray to the saints for care?
I'm gonna put on my golden crown at the foot of Canal Street
Yeah when the Mississippi's overflowin'
And the street car's seen it's day
And all is gone but plantations
The Treme, Vieux Carre
I'll be swingin' to that sweet music
Lookin' for a higher ground
Where Pop's is blowin' "Lord Walk On"
Up with Gabriel makin' sacared sounds
I'll see you there (At the foot of Canal Street)
What will they wear? (At the foot of Canal Street)
What will the band be playin'? (At the foot of Canal Street)
What will they be sayin'? (At the foot of Canal Street)
Yeah is your father layin' there?
Does your mother pray to the saints for care?
I'm gonna put on my golden crown at the foot of Canal Street
I'll see you there (At the foot of Canal Street)
What will they wear? (At the foot of Canal Street)
What will the band be playin'? (At the foot of Canal Street)
What will they be sayin'? (At the foot of Canal Street)
Yeah is your father sleepin' there?
Does your mother pray to the saints for care?
I'm gonna put on my golden crown
I'm gonna lay my burden down
I'm gonna put on my golden crown at the foot of Canal Street
Jesus loves me this I know
