Goddamn Hurricane

We got word just the other day

Big  wind is coming and we can't stay

My paw paw said  this time we're moving away

From the goddamn hurricane

No more Boudin or jambalaya

Houston ain't known for their red beans and rice

And what they call gumbo oughta be a crime

The goddamn hurricane

And the wind did blow through the bayou vermillion

And I don't know

If I'll ever see you  again

My little Creole girl

Won't ever be the same

Oh, the goddamn hurricane

She come running through the turkey grass

Dark hair and eyes with skin to match

We cried a little bit then she started to laugh

About the goddamn hurricane

No more dancing to  the zydeco

You better get used to the Tejano

She said she's going to her auntie's up in Tupelo

The goddamn hurricane

And the wind did blow through the bayou vermillion

And I don't know

If I'll ever see you again

My little Creole girl

Won't ever be the same

Oh, the goddamn hurricane

And the wind did blow through the bayou vermillion

And I don't know

If I'll ever see you again

My little Creole girl

Won't ever be the same

Oh, the goddamn hurricane
