[Verse 1]

Em                             B7
I know a swamp down south that can't be
Em
drained
Em                                       B7
At a little town just across the Pontchartrain
Am                                       Em
Somewhere around sundown, a crowd starts forming

[Chorus]

Em            B7                Em
Everynight is Saturday Night in New Orleans


[Verse 2]

Em
Cops out shaking em down on Toulouse
Em                                         B7
Stray dog barking at a voodoo head in a noose
Am                                               Em
Drunk girl running around in the clothes she was born in

[Chorus]

Em            B7                Em
Everynight is Saturday Night in New Orleans

[Verse 3]

Em                  B7                      Em
Cobblestone streets littered with muddy puddles
Em                                  B7
Painted ladies standing around in huddles
Am                                         Em
Junkies sleeping it off while the trumpets roaring

[Chorus]

Em            B7                Em
Everynight is Saturday Night in New Orleans

[Verse 4]

Em
Its a good day any day you feel no rain
Em                                      B7
As most days you drown in the pooring pain
Am                                  Em
Ain't nobody going to church in the morning

[Chorus]

Em            B7                Em
Everynight is Saturday Night in New Orleans
Em            B7                Em
Everynight is Saturday Night in New Orleans
