Steely Dan - Pearl Of The Quarter

On the water down in New Orleans,
My baby's the pearl of the quarter
She's a charmer like you never seen,
Singing voulez, voulez, voulez, vous?
Where the sailor spends his hard earned pay,
Red beans and rice for a quarter
You can see her almost any day
Singing voulez, voulez, voulez, vous?
And if you hear from my Louise,
Won't you tell her I say hello
Please make it clear when her day is done
She got a place to go
I walked alone down the Miracle Mile;
I met my baby by the shrine of the martyr
She stole my heart with her Cajun smile,
Singing voulez, voulez, voulez, vous?
She loved the million dollar words I say;
She loved the candy and the flowers I bought her
She said she loved me anad was on her way
Singing voulez, voulez, voulez, vous?
And if you hear from my Louise,
Won't you tell her I love her so
Please make it clear when her day is done
She got a place to go
On the water down in New Orleans,
My baby's the pearl of the quarter
She's a charmer like you never seen,
Singing voulez, voulez, voulez, vous?
Where the sailor spends his hard earned pay,
Red beans and rice for a quarter
You can see her almost any day
Singing voulez, voulez, voulez, vous?
And if you hear from my Louise,
Won't you tell her I say hello
Please make it clear when her day is done
She got a place to go
I walked alone down the Miracle Mile;
I met my baby by the shrine of the martyr
She stole my heart with her Cajun smile,
Singing voulez, voulez, voulez, vous?
She loved the million dollar words I say;
She loved the candy and the flowers I bought her
She said she loved me anad was on her way
Singing voulez, voulez, voulez, vous?
And if you hear from my Louise,
Won't you tell her I love her so
Please make it clear when her day is done
She got a place to go
