Going Back to New Orleans Songtext
Going back home, te-na-nee
To the land of the beautiful queen
I′m goin' back home to my baby
I′m goin' back to New Orleans
Wanna see na-na, my parin
Couzine and my ma and pa
Gonna tap my feet on Rampart Street
And be there for the Mardi Gras
I've been to Cuba, South America way
I′ve been to Europe, Mexico is okay
Over in France the chicks are really fine
I get my thrills below the Mason-Dixie Line
I′m goin' back home, te-na-nee
Never, never more will I roam
Goin′ to get my fill of gumbo fillet
'Cause New Orleans is my home
Goin′ back home, te-na-nee
To the land of the beautiful queens
I'm goin′ back home to my baby
I'm goin' back to New Orleans
Gonna get me crawfish
Jambalaya, red beans and some fine pralines
Gonna get some lovin′ that will satisfy
Back home in New Orleans
To the land of the beautiful queen
I′m goin' back home to my baby
I′m goin' back to New Orleans
Wanna see na-na, my parin
Couzine and my ma and pa
Gonna tap my feet on Rampart Street
And be there for the Mardi Gras
I've been to Cuba, South America way
I′ve been to Europe, Mexico is okay
Over in France the chicks are really fine
I get my thrills below the Mason-Dixie Line
I′m goin' back home, te-na-nee
Never, never more will I roam
Goin′ to get my fill of gumbo fillet
'Cause New Orleans is my home
Goin′ back home, te-na-nee
To the land of the beautiful queens
I'm goin′ back home to my baby
I'm goin' back to New Orleans
Gonna get me crawfish
Jambalaya, red beans and some fine pralines
Gonna get some lovin′ that will satisfy
Back home in New Orleans
