For the way you changed my plans
For being the perfect distraction
For the way you took me
I knew that I had, everything that I wanted to have
You made me see there was something missing

Evening star is shining bright,
So make a wish and hold on tight,
There's magic in the air tonight,
And anything can happen

In the South Land there's a city
Way down on the river
Where the women are very pretty
And all the men deliver

(Mama... I don't have time for dancing!)
That's just gonna have to wait a while
Ain't got time for messing around
And it's not my style

Don't you disrespect me little man!.
Don't you derogate or deride!
You're in my world now, Not your world
And I've got friends on the other side!

If I were a human being
I'd head straight for New Orleans
and I'd blow this horn
so hot and strong
like no one they'd ever seen

We're gonna take ya down, We're gonna take ya down
We're gonna take ya all the way down.
We're gonna take ya down, We're gonna take ya down
We're gonna take ya all the way.

Look how she lights up the sky
Ma belle Evangeline
So far above me yet I
Know her heart belongs to only me

Don't matter what you look like
Don't matter what you wear
How many rings you got on your finger
We don't care, no we don't care

In the South Land there's a city
Way down on the river
Where the women are very pretty
And all the men deliver
