Lyrics

Two in the morning there's a drink in my hand
(Dirt, dirt, dirty martini)
Nothing moving the place but sweat
I heard a rumour 'bout a cajun band
(Dirt, dirt, dirty martini)
The bartender says it's early yet
Wait the bartender says it's early yet

Too many olives in too much gin
Steppin' out in the city of sin
Too much dirty rice and too many beans
Gettin' down and dirty down in new orleans
Gettin' down and dirty down in new orleans

Have another, I believe I will
(Dirt, dirt, dirty martini)
And you can stir it with a dirty spoon
There's a perscription I've gotta fill
(Dirt, dirt, dirty martini)
And the doctor's gonna be here soon
Jimmy says the doctor's gonna be here soon

Too many olives in too much gin
Steppin' out in the city of sin
Too much dirty rice and too many beans
Gettin' down and dirty down in new orleans
Gettin' down and dirty down in new orleans
