In the South Land 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 that music playin' Hear what I'm saying and make it feel alright
Grab somebody, come on down Bring your paintbrush, we're painting the town Oh there's some sweetness going around Catch it down in New Orleans
We got magic, good and mase Make it happen, make it real, say If anything you want is lose what you have Down here in New Orleans
Hey partner, don't be shy Come on down here and give us a try You wanna do some livin' before you die Do it down in New Orleans
Stalee homes and mansions Of the sugar darns and cotton candy Rich people, old people, all got dreams Dreams do come true in New Orleans
