Lyrics

We danced our first dance at the Olde College Inn
What I wouldn’t give to go back there again
On top of the world
Thought we’d never come down
That was before Katrina hit town
His smile was the warmest that I’d ever seen
He had the eye of every Bayou Queen
A king of the good times
But I wore the crown
That was before Katrina hit town
You’re thinking one minute you're in a safe place
Then you sink in the deep end
You’re world's washed away
You’re drifting and wishing that you could hold on
Then it hits you
Everything but the memories are gone
She was a wild southern current
With porcelain skin
Didn’t see it was coming
’Til I caught her with him
Never had heartache like this take me down
That was before Katrina hit town
You’re thinking one minute you're in a safe place
Then you sink in the deep end
You’re world's washed away
You’re drifting and wishing that you could hold on
Then it hits you
Everything but the memories
The memories are gone
She may have taken my man
But she can't take me out
You can find me here building up from the ground
Things sure have changed
But I’m better off now
I’m so much stronger since Katrina hit town
