Arrived in New Orleans, a city filled with hope.
I just got out the airport, someone offered me dope.
fought temptation to purchase some and use it.
i just couldn't resist and injected every last bit.
tired of going on foot, i stole a car.
So I took a drive to the bar called 'Rising Sun'.
i ran on stage, took the mic and became a rock star.
ladies and gentlemen, the ceremony has begun.
but after a while i couldn't bare it anymore.
this life has nothing left to explore.
i got down in a hole, I've lost control.
i went out the door and took a stroll.
walked down the main street.
trying to deal with defeat.
such mortal fools we are.
Once again i found myself in a bar.
I drink to forget my sins.
so I drowned in a whiskey jar.
now you know the way my life ends.
