When We're Human

"When We're Human" is a song sung by Louis, Prince Naveen, and Tiana featured in the 2009 film The Princess and the Frog.

Lyrics
Louis: If I were a human being, I'd head straight for New Orleans And I'd blow this horn so hard and strong like no one they've ever seen

You've heard of Louis Armstrong, Mr. Sidney Bechet? All those boys gonna step aside When they hear this old ex-gator play, Listen... (Trumpet Solo)

When I'm human as I hope to be, I'm gonna blow this horn 'Til the cows come home And everyone's gonna bow down to me

Naveen: When I'm myself again, I want just the life I had A great big party every night That doesn't sound too bad

A redhead on my left arm A brunette on my right A blonde or two to hold the candles Now that seems just about right Eh, Louis?

Life is short When you're done, you're done We're on this earth to have some fun And that's the way things are

When I'm human and I'm gonna be, I'm gonna tear it up like I did before And that's a royal guarantee

Tiana: Your modesty becomes you And your sense of responsibility I've worked hard for everything I've got And that's the way it's supposed to be

When I'm a human being, at least I'll act like one If you do your best each and every day, good things are sure to come your way

What you give is what you get My daddy said that And I'll never forget And I recommend it to you

Louis, Naveen, and Tiana: When we're human And we're gonna be

Louis: I'm gonna blow my horn

Naveen: I'm gonna live the high life

Tiana: I'm gonna do my best To take my place in the sun

Louis, Naveen, and Tiana: When we're human
