Dear Molly

Dear Molly, how ya been?

Are you in Dallas, or back in Lafayette?

Thanks for the dance, thanks for the gin

My old friend

Did we ever walk down Saint Claude?

Was it you I saw at Markey's bar?

Did we ever share a night at Vaughan's?

Did we ever walk the Levee walls?

Yeah, we were there and we'll be back

My old friend

Now, the dreams take me home

Far from dirty towns, I roam

Dreams of fear, dreams of hope

Dreams of faces that I know

Down on Burgundy, men pass me by

Is it fear, or is it murder in their eyes?

Don't tell me this is the end

We've been through worse, and we'll be back again

We'll have a drink for each other

In the ninth ward
