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 and make it feel alright

Grab [bad word] on down
Bring your [bad word]  we're painting the town
Oh there's some sweetness going around
Catch it down in New Orleans

We got magic, good and mase
Make it happen, make it real, say
If anything you want is lose what you have
Down here in New Orleans

Hey partner, don't be shy [bad word] on down here and give us a try
You wanna do some livin' before you die
Do it down in New Orleans

Stalee homes and mansions
Of the sugar darns and cotton candy
Rich people, old people, all got dreams
Dreams [bad word] [bad word] in New Orleans
