FROM SOMEWHERE
OUTSIDE
I HEAR THE
STREET VENDOR CRY
FROM MY WINDOW
I SEE HIM
GOING DOWN
THE STREET
AND HE DON'T KNOW
THAT SHE
FELL RIGHT TO SLEEP
IN THE DAMP
TANGLED SHEETS
SO SOON
AFTER LOVE
IN THE HOT
AFTERNOON
NOW THE
BOURBON STREET LADY
SLEEPS LIKE A BABY
IN THE SHADOW
SHE WAS NEW TO ME
FULL OF MYSTERY
BUT NOW I KNOW
THAT SHE'S JUST A GIRL
AND I'M JUST A GUY
IN A ROOM
FOR LOVE
IN THE HOT
AFTERNOON
WE GOT HIGH IN
THE PARK
THIS MORNING
AND WE SAT
WITHOUT TALKIN'
THEN WE CAME
BACK HERE
IN THE HEAT OF
THE DAY
TIRED OF WALKIN'
WHERE UNDER
HER BREATH
SHE HUMMED
TO HERSELF
A TUNE
OF LOVE
IN THE HOT
AFTERNOON
NOW THE
BOURBON STREET LADY
SLEEPS LIKE A BABY
IN THE SHADOW
SHE WAS NEW TO ME
FULL OF MYSTERY
BUT NOW I KNOW
THAT SHE'S JUST A GIRL
AND I'M JUST A GUY
IN A ROOM
FOR LOVE
IN THE HOT
AFTERNOON
