Basin Street Blues |
| Won’t you come along with me, |
| To the Mississippi |
| We’ll take a boat to the land of dreams |
| Steam down the river, |
| Down to New Orleans |
| The bands there to meet us, |
| Old friends to greet us Where all the elite, always meet, |
| Heaven on earth they call it Basin Street |
| Basin Street is the street where the elite, always meet |
| In New Orleans land of dreams |
| You never know how nice it seems |
| Or how much it really means |
| Glad to be, yes siree, where welcome Street, |
| Dear to me Where I can lose my Basin Street blues |
| Well, Basin Street, you know it’s the street |
| Where all the swinging people meet |
| In New Orleans, land of dreams |
| Your’ll never know how nice it seems |
| Or just how much it really means |
| Glad to be, ah, yes siree, where welcome Street |
| Dear to me Where I can lose my Basin Street blues |
| Oh, ain’t ya glad ya came with us, |
| Mmmmmmmmmmm down the Mississippi |
| Down to the street, where the folks all meet |
| Heaven on earth, they call it Basin Street |
