*** The Devil Came To The 9th Ward ***
the devil came to the 9th ward pounding stakes in our front lawns seems
the ghetto's got some value after all property going up he's turning sidewalks
green and making houses gleam like the chrome on a cadillac clippity-clop
on desire property going up property going up and the prices are going
up property going up and the prices are gone this place isn't mine anymore
that place isn't mine this house isn't mine anymore that house isn't mine
neighboorhood isn't mine anymore bring in the oil, the pastels we need
some smiling faces around here from ear to ear property going up ernest
jobert change face here change name here hi-brow in lo-brow out to where,
to where, to where the devil came to the ninth ward pounding stakes in
our front lawns seems the ghetto's got some value after all
