|
Magnolia trees at night |
|
Sparkling bright |
|
Fields of cotton look wintery white |
|
When it's Christmas time |
|
In New Orleans |
|
A barefoot choir in prayer |
|
Fills the air |
|
Mississippi folks |
|
Are gathering there |
|
When it's Christmas time |
|
In New Orleans |
|
You'll see a dixieland Santa Claus |
|
Leading the band |
|
To a good old Creole beat |
|
And golly what a spirit |
|
You can only hear it |
|
Down on Basin Street |
|
Your cares will disappear |
|
When you hear |
|
Hallelujah St. Nicholas is here |
|
When it's Christmas time |
|
In New Orleans |
|
You'll see |
|
A dixieland Santa Claus |
|
Leading the band |
|
To a good old Creole beat |
|
And golly what a spirit |
|
You can only hear it |
|
Down on Basin Street |
|
Your cares will disappear |
|
When you hear |
|
Hallelujah old St. Nicholas is here |
|
When it's Christmas time |
|
In New Orleans |
|
When it's Christmas time in |
|
It's Christmas time in in New Orleans |
