[Verse 1]
C G F G
Saw her early morning on the banks of ole Mississippi
C G F G
Upriver Crescent Park as the city rolled out of bed

Dark hair and coco skin signing loud through a smile allright
C G F G
She Passed me like a summer breeze out of sight
[Chorus]
C G F G
Im still looking for my, Creole Queen
C G F G
Somewhere down on rue Dauphine
C G F G
When she smiles, this city stops for a beat
C G F G
When she sings their lost in that black water heat
[Verse 2]
C G F G
I think a saw her coasting between Piety and Desire
C G F G
Purple bike red shoes her hair on fire

I turned to catch a glimpse of that Creole smile

But all I saw on the corner was her fading back tire

Does this Crescent City feel the blues?
F C G
I know she knows what it means to lose

Now I’m ramblin through this town

I wondering if shell ever be found.
[Verse 3]
C G F G
Friends and strangers mixing on the corner of Kerlerec & Royal
C G F G
Am I missing something, as I smell that Shrimp boil
C G F G
Is she standing here? with beauty style and grace
C G F G
Now I’m gazing end to end of this street, without a trace
