Lyrics Basin Street Blues - Peanuts Hucko, Max Kaminsky, Jack Lesberg

Basin Street Blues

Wont you come and go with me Down that Mississippi
Well take a boat to the land of dreams
Come along with me on, down to new Orleans
Now the bands there to greet us Old friends will meet us Where all them folks goin to the st.
Louis cemetery meet
Heaven on earth… they call it basin street
Im tellin ya, basin street… is the street
Where all them characters from the first street they meet
New Orleans… land of dreams
You’ll never miss them rice and beans
Way down south in new Orleans
They’ll be huggin… and a kissin
Thats what I been missin
And all that music… lord, if you just listen
New Orleans… i got them basin street blues
Now ain’t you glad you went with me On down that Mississippi
We took a boat to the land of dreams
Heaven on earth… they call it basin street
