Yeah, Sorcha, that's the very song I was referring to.

Good job finding those lyrics! If (as I suspect) you found the lyrics but have not heard the song performed, I hope you get a chance to hear it someday. As I mentioned above, it's more "spoken" than "sung," both in Dave B's original and Dr. John's remake, and the mock-serious declamatory style adds to the humor.

The old-New-Orleans-favorite original gets occasional airplay on WWOZ, and since the recent release of the new Dr. John album, both the new and old versions have been playing fairly frequently. In the last month, I've probably heard this song on my car radio, during my 20-minutes-each-way deaily commute, at least a half-dozen times.
