Lyrics

I heard that Heaven was in New Orleans
And I tore my temple down
I let my demons, and my angels
Ride along and duke it out

Gonna let you down
Gonna let you down
Gonna let you down
Gonna let you, oh

I heard the streets there all were golden
They said we all could wear a crown
Well come to find out, it all was stolen
Bout the time I got to town

Gonna let you down
Gonna let you down
Gonna let you down
Gonna let you, oh, oh

But someday, I’ll be better
I’m gonna find my bliss
Maybe not here, maybe never
In a place like this

Gonna let you down
Gonna let you down
Gonna let you down
Gonna let you, oh

I heard that Heaven was in New Orleans
And I tore my temple down
I let my demons and my angels
Ride along and duke it out

Gonna let you down
Gonna let you down
Gonna let you down
