Down In New Orleans Songtext / Lyric

In the South Lands, 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 the music playin'

Hear what I'm saying, it make you feel alright

Grab somebody, come one down

Get your paintbrush, we're paintin'the town

There's some sweetness going 'round

Catch it down in New Orleans

We got magic, good and bad

Make us happy and make us real sad

Everything you wanted is thing you always had

Down. Here in New Orleans

Qué pas? Don't be shy

Come on down 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 Baron and Cotton Kings

Rich people, poor people, all got dreams

Dreams do come true in New Orleans
