Standin' on the corner of Royal Street,    on a Sunday afternoon    Out there by the old A & P    barefoot in the sun in June.    I saw her playin' with the    big brass band with old Gate Junior on guitar    I saw her playin' with John and Mooney too    uptown at Maddigan's Bar.          REFREIN:    Washboard Lisa, wash away your sins    let them go down the drain    Everytime you move your dirty little hands    takes away our fears and our pain       ( INTRO ) 2x       I said "hello" to her out there on the street    Boys, I looked into here eyes    She said that she knew Tom Robin    Oh, I believed it was a lie    But how can New Orleans be so good    To a Lucky Strike smoking queen    With a rip in her dress and a dirty toes    Livin’ life like a dream          REFREIN:    Washboard Lisa, wash away your sins    let them go down the drain    Everytime you move your dirty little hands    takes away our fears and our pain    (INTRO) 2x
