Pass That Torch (feat. Ivan Neville)

Those clouds are rolling in

And the sun refused to shine

I've got this funny feeling

Something just ain't right

I feel those south winds ablowin

It's been wind and rain all night

Flambeaux lights the way

And this world keeps on turning

So pass me that torch

I'm gonna keep that fire burning

There's spirits in that river (in that river)

I can hear them when I listen (yeah)

This voice it keeps on telling me

Two souls are intertwisted (oh)

That maharaja has flown

Doctor was tripping in the night (in the night)

Every man is born (every man is born)

And every man he dies (that's the circle)

Got to keep this culture living

Don't let that water rise (no no)

I learned it from the legends

Gonna let my spirit fly (let my spirit fly)

Flambeaux lights the way

And this world keeps on turning

So pass me that torch

I'm gonna keep that fire burning

There's music in the streets (music in the streets)

In the city where I was born (down in New Orleans)

No she ain't broken

Just a little beat up and torn

Came in through Jelly Roll's fingers (Jelly Roll's fingers)

And straight out Satche's horn (straight out Satchmo's horn)

Flambeaux lights the way (lights the way)

And this world keeps on turning (keeps on turning)

So pass me that torch

I'm gonna keep that fire burning (fire burning)

Flambeaux lights the way (lights the way)

And this world keeps on turning (keeps on turning)

So pass me that torch (pass me that torch now now)

I'm gonna keep that fire burning (keep that fire burning)
