| In the heart of the night, in the cool southern rain | |
| There's a full moon in sight shining down on the | |
| Pontchartrain | |
| And the river she rises just like she used to do | |
| She's so full of surprises she reminds me of you | |
| In the heart of the night | |
| In the heart of the night | |
| In the heart of the night | |
| Oh down in | |
| New Orleans | |
| There's a night bird singing right on through till the dawn | |
| And the streets are still ringing with people carrying on | |
| Oh it's been so long waiting just to be here again | |
| Anticipating all the time | |
| I could spend | |
| In the heart of the night | |
| In the heart of the night | |
| In the heart of the night | |
| And I trust in your love never falling down | |
| I trust in your love just like | |
| I do in this town | |
| Oh never falling down, oh never falling down | |
| In the heart of the night, in the cool falling rain | |
| There's a full moon in sight shining down on the | |
| Pontchartrain | |
| And the river she rises just like she used to do | |
| She's so full of surprises, come on, she reminds me of you, right here | |
| In the heart of the night | |
| In the heart of the night | |
| In the heart of the night | |
| Ohh down in | |
| New Orleans | |
| And I'm so glad to be back in | |
| New Orleans | |
| Please don't wake me, don't shake me | |
| If it's only, if it's only just a dream' | |
| Cause it's the only place that | |
| I can face, it makes me feel so right | |
| Below that | |
| Dixie moon and loving you in the heart of night |
