New Orleans - Original |
| In the South Land there’s a city |
| Way down on the river |
| Where the women are very pretty |
| And all the men deliver |
| They got music |
| It’s always playin' |
| Start in the day time, go all through the night |
| When you hear that music playin' |
| Hear what I’m saying, it make you feel alright |
| Grab somebody, come on down |
| Bring your paintbrush, we’re paintin' the town |
| Honey, there’s some sweetness goin' 'round |
| Catch it down in New Orleans |
| We got magic, good and bad |
| Make you happy or make you real sad |
| Get everything you want, lose what you had |
| Down here in New Orleans |
| Hey partner, don’t be shy |
| Come on down here and give us a try |
| You wanna do some livin' before you die |
| Do it down in New Orleans |
| Stately homes and mansions |
| Of the Sugar Barons and the Cotton Kings |
| Rich people, poor people, all got dreams |
| Dreams do come true in New Orleans |
