Maria McKee - This Property Is Condemned lyrics

27th wagon, full of cotton

Was parked outside my chicken shack door

I kept my crib covered up in satin

In case my baby came around for more

Now I feel, Daddy, somethin's not the same

'Cause there's weeds and there's rust

And the roof won't hold the rain

I remember better days

Lace in every window and roses 'round the gate

Now they've chased away all my friends

And they've locked me out and hung a sign on the fence

And it says, "This property is condemned"

Take me down the Vieux Carre

Where a little girl can get a bed or a bite

If you should see me coughin' 'round the corner

Won't you mix a little sugar with my tonic tonight?

I can feel like I'm part of the parade

'Cause I feel like there's bourbon

Slappin' around in my veins

I remember better daysMaria McKee - This Property Is Condemned - http://motolyrics.com/maria-mckee/this-property-is-condemned-lyrics.html

Lace in every window and roses 'round the gate

Now they've chased away all my friends

And they've locked me out and hung a sign on the fence

And it says, "This property is condemned"

I got a new tiara, Daddy, take me to the Mardi Gras

Buy me cotton candy, dress me up in flowers

Let me be your baby doll, we can ditch that social worker

In and out the swinging doors on Tchoupitoulas Street

You may call me jail bait but I ain't too little to take the heat

I can feel phantoms blowin' through my brain

And I feel like I need someone to make 'em go away, oh

I remember better days

Lace in every window and roses 'round the gate

Now they've chased away all my friends

And they've locked me out and hung a sign on the fence

And it says, "This property is condemned"
