Pearl Of The Quarter, lyric by Steely Dan

from the songs album Countdown To Ecstacy


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 vous
Where the sailor spend his hard-earned pay
Red beans and rice for a quarter
You can see her almost any day
Singing voulez vous
Chorus:
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

I walked alone down the miracle mile
I met my baby by the shine of the martyr
She stole my heart with her cajun smile
Singing voulez vous
She loved the million dollar words i say
She loved the candy and the flowers that i bought her
She said she loved me and was on her way
Singing voulez vous

Chorus
