DOWN AMONG THE QUARTER

YOU KNOW DOWN AMONG THE QUARTER
AS THE FULL MOONLIGHT SETS THE SCENE
SOMTHINGS LURKING IN THE SHADOW
AND MY SENSES BECOME SO KEENED
THE STREET LAMPS GLOW  A YELLOW BLUE
AND CROSS THE ALLEY AT MY BACK
A MOONLIGHT CARRIAGE HORSES HOOVES
MAKES THEM COBBLESTONES CLACK CLACK CLACK

CHORUS
AND THERE’S VOICES IN THE MIST TONIGHT
I HEAR REVELERS ON THE WATER
THE SOUL OF SOMETHING I CAN’T RESIST
WHEN I’M DOWN AMONG THE QUARTER
		
THERE’S FOG ROLLIN OFF THE LEVEE
THE DISTANT WHISTLE OF A SHIP
 AND I’M STEPPING IN SURREALTY
THROUGH ALL THE TOMBS WALL VAULTS AND CRYPTS
 AND THERE’S VOICES IN THE MIST TONIGHT
DOWN AMONG THE QUARTER
	
CHORUS
SPOKEN BRIDGE
AND I GET SO HAUNTED—I GET SO HAUNTED WHEN—
IM WALKIN DOWN THOSE MIDNIGHT STREETS OF NEW ORLEAN


YOU KNOW DOWN AMONG THE QUARTER
I HEARD A MUTED TRUMPET CLIMB
AND THE NEXT THING I FOUND MYSELF
TRANSPORTED TO ANOTHER TIME-
TO ANOTHER TIME
REPEAT CHORUS TWICE
