Lyrics:
Don't waste you time being angry
when a moment's better with a smile
if you feel you're time's been wasted
waste it here a while
standing at that bus stop just across from Krausse
waiting for the driver
to take me to my heavenly house

chorus
I'll see you there
at the foot of Canal Street
what will you wear
at the foot of canal street
will the band be playing
at the foot of Canal Street
what will the people be saying
at the foot of Canal Street

does your father lie there does your mother pray there
I'm going to put on my golden crown
At the foot of Canal Street

verse
when the levee banks have over flowed
and the street car has seen it's day
when all is gone the plantations
the Treme' and the Vieux Carre'
I'll be swinging to that music
way up on higher ground
where Pops is blowing "Walk On"
with Gabriel making sacred sounds

chorus
I'll see you there
at the foot of Canal Street
what will you wear
at the foot of canal street
will the band be playing
at the foot of Canal Street
what will the people be saying
at the foot of Canal Street

does your father lie there does your mother pray there
I'm going to put on my golden crown
at the foot of Canal Street
