Down in New Orleans in a shack by the water
My future found me in the shadows of the quarter
Fell down an alley off of Bourbon Street
I was growin' half crazy from the crowds and the heat

Coulda been the spell of the hurricane
When a voice from the dark whispered my name
Slipped down a hallway to a dark back room
Heard a phantom in the dark sing a gypsy tune

Chorus:
Bon Ton Rouler and a Voulez-Vouz
Life in the Quarter could be strange and cruel
Bad luck to talk about the things I've seen
There's no one meaner than the Gypsy Queen

I laughed out loud when she spoke of luck
Reached in my pocket for my twenty bucks
I didn't recognize the letters she wrote
'Round a five sided star with the head of a goat

She read my palm and she told me that
In my future was the name Lestat
Then she finished and I had to go
Next stop the grave of Marie Lavoux

Chorus.

Went to the graveyard just about midnight
I saw somethin' flyin' in the pale moonlight
Next thing I was wakin' and I felt my neck
There were two little lumps that were kinda wet

Since that day, I live for the night
I glide the alleys away from the light
There's only one way that I'll ever depart
That's when I leave with a stake in my heart

Chorus.
