South In New Orleans

Down south in New Orleans
The prettiest girls I've ever seen
Sparkling eyes, lips so sweet
We make love to the Rumba beat
Ship's at anchor, my suitcase packed
Got a one way ticket, ain't comin' back
Life's a pleasure, love's no dream
Down south in New Orleans

My dark eyed baby, I'm on my way
Back into your arms to stay
I'm tired of work, I wanna play
I'll make sweet love to you night and day

Down south in New Orleans
The prettiest girls I've ever seen
Sparkling eyes, lips so sweet
We make love to the Rumba beat
Ship's at anchor, my suitcase packed
Got a one way ticket, ain't comin' back
Life's a pleasure, love's no dream
Down south in New Orleans

I want to get too loose, on Toulose Street
I wanna kiss all the Creole girls I see
Drink all day, dance all night
Do it wrong, 'til I do it right

Down south in New Orleans
The prettiest girls I've ever seen
Sparkling eyes, lips so sweet
We make love to the Rumba beat
Ship's at anchor, my suitcase packed
Got a one way ticket, ain't comin' back
Life's a pleasure, love's no dream
Down south in New Orleans
