Lyrics
[Catchy Hook]
[Verse 1]
Beneath the moon's eerie light,
He stalks the streets of endless night.
French Quarter whispers, legends told,
Of a shadow, bold and cold.
[Verse 2]
Misty paths where jazz notes play,
He glides where shadows mix with day.
Through alleys dark and corners blind,
Seeking those he's yet to find.
[Chorus]
In the City of New Orleans,
The vampire's hunt is glorious.
Beneath the crescent moon's embrace,
Where every heartbeat marks his haunted chase.
[Verse 3]
Ancient eyes, a timeless stare,
Through crowds of revelers unaware.
His charm, a mask so sleek, so fine,
Hiding fangs that wait to dine.
[Interlude]
[Verse 4]
Café lights, a murky glow,
Lovers unaware of the foe.
He watches with a silent plea,
Bound forever, never free.
[Chorus]
In the City of New Orleans,
The vampire's hunt is glorious.
Beneath the crescent moon's embrace,
Where every heartbeat marks his haunted chase.
[Verse 5]
The river flows, a silent guide,
By water's edge, he must abide.
His curse to roam, never to rest,
In New Orleans, a ghostly guest.
[dixieland band interlude]
[Chorus]
In the City of New Orleans,
The vampire's hunt is glorious.
Beneath the crescent moon's embrace,
Where every heartbeat marks his haunted chase.
[Verse 6]
A whispered threat in every tale,
In shadows deep, beyond the pale.
He walks a line 'twixt night and day,
A predator, always by the bay.
[dixieland band interlude]
[Chorus]
In the City of New Orleans,
The vampire's hunt is glorious.
Beneath the crescent moon's embrace,
Where every heartbeat marks his haunted chase.
[Outro]
As dawn creeps up the Mississippi's side,
The vampire seeks a shadowed place to hide.
In dreams of darkness, he forever roams,
The French Quarter streets his eternal home.
