[Intro]
E B E B
[Verse]
E B
I was standing on the sidewalk in 1945
E B
In Jacksonville, Illinois
E B
When asked what my name was there came no reply
E B
They said I was a deaf and sightless half wit boy
E B
But Louis was my name, though I could not say it
E B
I was born and raised in New Orleans
E B
My spirit was wild, so I let the river take it
E B
On a barge and a prayer upstream
E
Well, they searched for a mother
E
And they searched for a father
B
And they searched till they searched no more
E
The doctors put to rest their scientific tests
B
And they named me 'John Doe No. 24'
E B
And they all shook their heads in pitty
E B
For a world so silent and dark
E
Well, there's no doubt that life's a mystery
B
But so too is the human heart
E
And it was my heart's own perfume
B E B
When the crepe jasmine bloomed on saint Morgue Avenue
E
Though I couldn't hear the bells
B E B
Of the streetcars coming by toeing the track I knew
E B
And if I were an old man returning
E B
With my satchel and porkpie hat
E B
I'd hit every jazz joint on Bourbon
E B
And I'd hit everyone on Basin after that
[Instrumental]
E B E B E B E B E B E B
[Verse 2]
E
The years kept passing as they passed me around
B
From one state ward to another
E B
Like I was an orphan shoe from the lost and found
E B
Always missing the other
B
And they gave me a harp last Christmas
E B
And all the nurses took a dance
E B
But lately I've been growing listless
E B
I've been dreaming again of the past
E
I'm wandering down to the banks
B E B
Of the great Big Muddy where the shotgun houses stand
E B
I am seven years old and I feel my dad
E B
Reach out for my hand
E B
While I drew breath no one missed me
E B
So they won't on the day that I cease
E B
Put a sprig of crepe jasmine with me
E B
To remind me of New Orleans
[Outro]
