Lyrics

[Verse 1]

In the South Land, there's a city

Way down on the river

Where the women are very pretty

And all the men deliver

They got music, it's always playin'

Start in the day time, go all through the night

When you hear that music playin'

Hear what I'm saying, it make ya feel alright

[Chorus]

Grab somebody, come on down

Bring your paintbrush, we're paintin' the town

Oh, there's some sweetness goin' 'round

Catch it down in New Orleans

[Verse 2]

We got magic, good and bad

Make you happy or make you real sad

Get everything you want or lose what you had

Down here in New Orleans

Hey, partner, don't be shy

Come on down here and give us a try

You wanna do some livin' before you die?

Do it down in New Orleans

[Outro]

Stately homes and mansions

Of the Sugar Barons and the Cotton Kings

Rich people, poor people, all got dreams

Dreams do come true in New Orleans
