NOLA

Take me down to the river bend

Voodoo magic gonna cure my head

Only down in New Orleans

Be anything that you wanna be

Garden District to Vieux Carre

File gumbo to etouffee

Take me down to New Orleans

Living easy is a way of life

Crescent City gonna treat you right

Turning loose on Mardi Gras day

Hear that jock-a-mo fee-na-ne

Drinking smoking and feeling fine

Come on join in that second line

Take me down to New Orleans

So put a glide in your stride

And come down with me

Take your queen to the scene

Where the streets never sleep

In the summer spring winter or in the fall

You got to go to the city where they have it all

And you might just decide to never leave

Once you get a taste of New Orleans

If you're having fun say yeah you right

Tipitina's gonna rock tonight

Neville Brothers, Ernie K-Doe

Irma Thomas, Fats Domino

Allen Toussaint, Bartholomew

Dr. John and Booker, too

Take me down to New Orleans

So put a glide in your stride

And come down with me

Take your queen to the scene

Where the streets never sleep

In the summer spring winter or in the fall

You got to go to the city where they have it all

And you might just decide to never leave

Once you get a taste of New Orleans

Hey now

Hey now

Hey now

Hey now

Hey now

Hey now

Hey now

Hey now

And you might just decide to never leave

Once you get a taste of New Orleans

So put a glide in your stride

And come down with me

Take your queen to the scene

Where the streets never sleep

In the summer spring winter or in the fall

You got to go to the city where they have it all

And you might just decide to never leave

Once you get a taste of New Orleans

You might just decide to never leave

Once you get a taste of New Orleans
