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 cajun1 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
|
Creole2 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
|
|
