Basin Street Blues (1960) |
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 |
