New Orleans - Elvis Presley

You’ll never know

What heaven means

Until you’ve been down to New Orleans

You ain’t been livin' till you cuddle and coo

With some black-eyed baby by de old bayou

You’ve never seen

You’ve never seen those Cupid doll queens

Like they got 'em in New Orleans

And, ooh, they love you like no-one can

It makes you awful glad that you were born a man.

If-if-if you ain’t been there

Then you ain’t been nowhere

The livin’s lazy and the lovin’s fine

If you feel low down

So help me Hannah

You should lose the blues in Loui-si-i-si-ana.

Get the lead

Get the lead out of your jeans

And hot foot it down, hot foot down to where?

New Orleans

Louisiana baby tells you stay awhile

Live it up, love it up, southern style

Way down in New New Orleans.
