Butchertown Fight Song

May 16, 2002

Butchertown, Butchertown, where art thy soul?
Lost in the heart of a spagetti bowl.

Ribbons of concrete criss-cross and surround;
threatening awareness of a railroad underground.

Piggies succumbed by tanning their hide;
now suffer slowly from carbon monoxide.

They rambled through streets at a leisurely pace;
are menaced today by vehicles that race.

The connection to New Orleans by river and townhouses; bulldozed today for sheet metal warehouses.

Wrought iron fences, cornices, three brick thick walls, ... History...belongs to us all.

Restore Butchertown to its storied past.

Join the struggle to make history last.
