where ya'at 'da night before Christmas

’da night before Krissmas
where ya'at 'da night before Krissmas

t'was 'da night before Christmas and all through New Orleans
every bartender's stirring Merry Krissmas to ya dahlin'
'da bar's been set up on 'da front porch wit' care
in hopes dat a second line soon would be dere
'da kids pretend sleepin' up in deir beds
while visions of crawfish pie danced in deir heads
when out on 'da neutral ground arose such a drumming
I sprang from my futon to see if a parade was coming
away to google earth I clicked in a beat
zoomed in on my shutters and on to my street
den what to my wondering eye should appear
but a red pick up truck Mr. Okra drove here
his eyes how they twinkled his bullhorn it crackled as he called out "I HAVE ONIONS, TOMATOES AND APPLES"
He had homemade jams and strawberry jelly I ran down to 'da street to buy some for Shelly
and I heard 'da Pie Lady comin' as he drove out of sight
I keep eatin' and drinkin' like 'dis
I'm gonna sleep 'til Christmas night
Merry Kringle, a Gear New Year, a Happy Mardi Gras and the Bestest Jazz Fest ever.
red beans and ricely yours,
Paulie
