Grace - Favorite Street

Bourbon Street in New Orleans
All the bars and different scenes
All the people that I see
Like to come and dance with me
All the people stumble around
There are so many things to be found
There is music and fantastic lights
Come to bourbon for crazy nights
Although you must be older than 21
All ages can have some fun
Musicians play their funky beat
They make me want to move my feet
Bourbon Street is very neat
But be careful of who you meet

Grace, age 16
