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
|
