Dixie Drug Store - текст песни
Dixie Drug Store
It was muggy July around supper time
When I pulled into New Orleans
I got dropped off
At South Rampart Street
I was hungry for a plate of greens
I made my way down the banquette
Where I could see an open door
And overhead a sign
Made of painted pine read
The Dixie Drug Store
Peppers and roots were hanging
From the rafters above
There were oils and sprays
All on display
For money luck and for love
I reached down to pick one up
When a dark hand grabbed my arm
And before I could see just who it was
She said "You don't want that charm,
The last man to walk that thing out of here
He just up and disappeared.
Found his wallet and his wingtip shoes
Near a tombstone down in Algiers
What you need my travelling friend,
Is a place to wash your jeans
And I wouldn't be the least surprised
If you were hungry for a plate of greens"
She beckoned me on up the stairs
For she'd done made up her mind
She said "Take off your hat
And kick off your boots
And leave your pride behind"
Then she took me down to a secret place
