Do you know what it means to miss New Orleans |
|
And miss it each night and day |
|
I know I'm not wrong, the feelings getting stronger |
|
The longer I stay away |
|
Miss the moss covered vines |
|
The tall sugar pines |
|
Where mockin' birds use to sing |
|
And I'd like to see the lazy Mississippi |
|
A hurryin' into spring |
|
The moonlight on the bayou |
|
A creole tune that fills the air |
|
I dream about magnolias in June |
|
And soon I'm wishing that I was there |
|
Do you know what it means to miss New Orleans |
|
When that's where you left your heart |
|
And there's something more |
|
I miss the one I care for |
|
More than I miss New Orleans |
|
The moonlight on the bayou |
|
A creole tune that fills the air |
|
I dream about magnolias in June |
|
And soon I'm wishing that I was there |
|
Do you know what it means to miss New Orleans |
|
When that's where you left your heart |
|
And there's something more |
|
I miss the one I care for |
|
More than I miss New Orleans |
|
More than I miss New Orleans |
