|
Won't you come along with me |
|
To the Mississippi |
|
We'll take the boat to the land of dreams |
|
Steam down the river down to New Orleans |
|
The band's there to meet us |
|
And old friends to greet us |
|
Where all the people always meet |
|
Heaven on earth they call it Basin Street |
|
Basin Street is the street |
|
Where the elite always meet |
|
In New Orleans the land of dreams |
|
You'll never know how nice it seems or just how much it really means |
|
Glad to be oh yessiree |
|
Where welcome's free are dear to me |
|
Where I can lose |
|
My Basin Street blues |
|
Glad to be oh yessiree |
|
Where welcome's free are dear to me |
|
Where I can lose |
|
My Basin Street blues |
|
Ain't you glad you came with me |
|
Way down to the Mississippi |
|
We took the boat to the land of dreams |
|
Steam down the river to New Orleans |
