I know that there’s something in life that I haven’t got
As long as I’m living away from my favourite spot
I know of a city where you and I gotta go
It’s always a party and the seafood prices are low

Oh that city [bad word] to me and I gotta respond
Because I ain’t nothing like even ?? hanging in the café du monde
Can’t you boogie on Jackson Square and go on Bourbon Street
And then go down to the Sixth ?? and dance to the funky beat

‘Cause I gotta be in New Orleans where the brass bands play
I’ll have some [bad word] and some air to fade
I feel the Crescent City calling me today
Because there ain’t no doubt my heart and soul is in New Orleans

If ever you’re longing to see the other side
Then fasten your seatbelt, sit back and enjoy the ride
city is waiting, like nothing you’ve seen before
So take it all in then [bad word] on back for more

Hear the music that fills the streets, it’s a wonderful sound
And see the smiles on the faces of everybody around
Reboot plays at the Maple Leaf ??
?? Corner, oh Lord I can hardly wait

‘Cause I gotta be in New Orleans where the brass bands play
I’ll have some [bad word] and some air to fade
I feel the Crescent City calling me today
Because there ain’t no doubt my heart and soul lives in New Orleans
It lives in New Orleans [bad word] on walking on Jackson Square my [bad word] take a walk with me
We’ll take a stroll down Claiborne Street in the morning
Down in New Orleans
