Standin' on the corner of Royal Street, nOn a Sunday afternoon nOut there by the old A & P nBarefoot in the sun of June. nI saw her playin' with the Big Mess Band nWith Augie Junior on guitar nI saw her play with John Mooney too nUptown at Maddigan's Bar. nnWashboard Lisa, wash away your sins nLet them go down the drain nEverytime you move your dirty little hands nTakes away our fears and our pain nnI said hello to her out there on the street nBoys, I looked into her eyes nShe said that she knew Tom Robbins nOh, I believed it was a lie nBut how can New Orleans be so good nTo a Lucky Strike smoking queen nWith a rip in her dress and a dirty toes nLivin’ life like a dream nnWashboard Lisa, wash away your sins nLet them go down the drain nEverytime you move your dirty little hands nTakes away our fears and our pain
