New Orleans Lyrics

Sixty-one out of Baton Rouge Down Louisian' Heading for the gulf of Mexico Sun is beating, ain't no breeze Spanish moss from big old trees Listening to the cajun radio Going down on the Mississippi Queen Going down down down to New Orleans Corner bands on Jackson Square Music fills the air Bon temps roulez, let the good times roll Tipitina's, second line Irma Thomas, Allen Toussaint Snooks Eaglin, Doctor John, Fats Domino Going down on the Mississippi Queen Going down down down to New Orleans Crawfish, much as you can eat Down on Bourbon Street Oyster po'boy, best I've ever seen Melting pot of jazz and soul Blues and rock 'n roll Creole gumbo, dirty rice 'n beans Going down on the Mississippi Queen Going down down down to New Orleans Professor Longhair dead 'n gone His spirit lingers on In the crescent city on lake Ponchartrain Feel the rhythm in the street New Orleans sound, New Orleans beat Iko Iko and Little Liza Jane Going down on the Mississippi Queen Going down down down to New Orleans
