lyrics

Welcome to use caution
I mean welcome to new Orleans, welcome to the cauldron
we stay cooking that up, its boiling
and theres oil in the water from here to Florida
my shirt damp and I'm off my third drank
got cups in both hands and a bottle in my pants
DJ Real on - so I do my dance
take yo ass next door if you wanna hear trance
Saints is champs
and reading all the street names man you would swear this was France
swore this was Atlantis when the floodwaters hit
we ain't ashamed we got outta there when we had the chance
those ain't No Limit tanks
that's the US Army and they about to pull rank
stay yo ass on this side of the West Bank
and that's thanks from these big ass shotguns, watch yo ass man

Katrina was a chick with a attitude
and the moment I met her I knew she was bad news
she threw my shit out the third floor cross the Third Ward
now I'm sleeping on a church floor - feeling dirt poor
fuck I work for, the city like a world war
but folk take enough now, they can take more
it's the blessing and the curse, see, living in the Dirty
the best day of your life or the last day, the line's blurry
Butler's was poppin till that kid got popped
like that dude on Voice's lawn, even Uptown hot
and Bam ran this town till he got knocked
but he beat death so beating the Feds ain't a long shot
13am Posse, we made men, Gotti
tell em again and again, just watch me

Somebody get Weezy on the phone
tell him the Easy is my second home so put me on
and when he comes to LA I’ma vouch for him
and if he need a place to stay I got a couch for him
got a studio if he feel like recording
gon have to put the mic a couple inches down for him
he about shoulder high, floodwater level
that line's everywhere you go in the N.O.
I'm bumping Aaron Neville and the Soul Rebels
driving with a daiquiri -yeah it's terrible
but that's the life out here and everybody know
you go hard till you gotta go then you go
let the brass band play all the way to the grave
this ain't a funeral, it's a parade
so let the wine flow free and don't cry for me
because I lived in the Easy.
