Knives Of New Orleans Lyrics - Eric Church

1 Yeah, I'd give this last wrinkled dollar

2 In my pocket that I earned

3 With a hammer and vice

4 If I could undo some things

5 And grow me some wings

6 Fly out of this quarter tonight

7 Yeah, tonight, every man with a TV

8 Is seeing a man with my clothes and my face

9 In the last thirty minutes

10 I've gone from a person of interest

11 To a full-blown manhunt underway

12 I did what I did

13 I have no regrets

14 When you cross the line

15 You get what you get

16 Tonight, a bleeding memory

17 Is tomorrow's guilty vein

18 Your auburn hair on a faraway sea wall

19 Screams across the Pontchartrain

20 I'm haunted by headlights

21 And a crescent city breeze

22 One wrong turn on Bourbon

23 Cuts like the knives of New Orleans

24 I'm a ghost dodging bullets

25 In all of these alleys

26 Just looking for my getaway keys

27 Wrapped up in the night

28 Hiding out in plain sight

29 But this grip's getting tight around me

30 Ain't no getting out

31 That I can see

32 They'll take me dead

33 If they ever take me

34 Tonight, a bleeding memory

35 Is tomorrow's guilty vein

36 Your auburn hair on a faraway sea wall

37 Screams across the Pontchartrain

38 I'm haunted by headlights

39 And a crescent city breeze

40 One wrong turn on Bourbon

41 Cuts like the knives of New Orleans

42 Of New Orleans

43 What I wouldn't do

44 For just one more kiss

45 I'm all out of time

46 Honey, it's come down to this

47 I'm haunted by your hazel eyes

48 And this crescent city breeze

49 One wrong turn on Bourbon

50 Cuts like the knives of New Orleans

51 Of New Orleans

52 I did what I did

53 I did what I did

54 I did what I did

55 I did what I did
