MoonCats

Lyrics

Well I've been to the California coast
Forests of mighty evergreen
And I've walked through New York City
And I've seen the Lady Liberty
I've crossed the cold Montana mountains
And swam in warm Hawaii
And I saw a fair bit of Europe
And part of me stayed in Italy

Of all the places I have been
There's still a place that I'd like to see
And when I go please do a favor for me
Spread my ashes in that big muddy river
So that I can finally see New Orleans

Yeah I hear they have some swinging music
And world-class cuisine
Gonna get me some jambalaya
A carnival just for me
And I do still love my home state
That land of ice and prairie
But don't put that body in that cold ground
My soul would surely freeze

Of all the places I have been
There's still a place that I'd like to see
And when I go please do a favor for me
Spread my ashes in that big muddy river
So that I can finally see New Orleans

Spread my ashes in that big muddy river
So I can finally see New Orleans
