New Orleans Songtext
von Joan Jett and the Blackhearts

I said hey, hey, hey
I said hey, hey, hey
Come on, everybody
Take a trip with me

Went down the Mississippi
Down to New Orleans
Where the honeysuckle′s bloomin'
On the honeysuckle vines
And love′s bloomin' there
Oh, all the time
There's a southern Belle
There′s the Mississippi Queen
Down the Mississippi
Down to New Orleans

I said hey, hey, hey
I said hey, hey, hey
Well, come on
Take a stroll down to Basin Street


And listen to the music
With a Dixieland beat
Where the magnolia blossoms
They fill the air
And if you ain′t been to heaven
Then you ain't been there
You got French moss hanging
From a big old tree
Down the Mississippi
Down to New Orleans

I said hey, hey, hey
I said look out child
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Come on, everybody
Take a trip with me

Went down the Mississippi
Down to New Orleans
Where the honeysuckle′s bloomin'
On the honeysuckle vines
And love′s bloomin' there
Oh, all the time
There′s a southern Belle
There's the Mississippi Queen
Down the Mississippi
Down to New Orleans


I said hey, hey, hey
I said look out child
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Come on, everybody
Take a trip with me.
