You might meet the loup-garou!

Don't go by the river side,

You'll be sorry if you do!"

- Voltaire, "Don't go by the River"

"Stately homes and mansions Of the sugar barons and the cotton kings Rich people, poor people, all got dreams Dreams do come true in New Orleans"

"Long before the Superdome Where the Saints of football play Lived a city that the damned call home Hear their hellish rondelet...

New Orleans! Home of pirates, drunks and whores New Orleans! Tacky overpriced souvenir stores If you want to go to hell, you should take a trip To the Sodom and Gomorrah of the Mississip' New Orleans! Stinking, Rotten, vomiting, vile New Orleans! Putrid, brackish, maggotty, foul New Orleans! Crummy, lousy, rancid, and rank New Orleans!"
