John Lee Hooker — Canal Street Blues

They tell me Canal Street is the longest street in town They tell me Canal Street is the longest street in New Orleans You ride all day long, you're still on Canal Street Whiskey and women all night and all day down there Whiskey and women, oh yea, all night and all day down there If I ever get lucky and get some money, I'm goin' down in New Orleans My baby wrote me a letter, she livin' on Canal Street She wrote me a letter, she livin' on Canal Street She said, "Johnny you oughta come down Everything is just fine down here down in New Orleans on Canal Street"
