Lyrics

[00:16:10] In the South Land there's a city
[00:20:30] Way down on the river
[00:24:09] Where the women are very pretty
[00:28:20] And all the men deliver
[00:32:10] They got music
[00:34:00] It's always playing
[00:36:00] Start in the day time, go all through the night
[00:40:10] When you hear that music playing
[00:44:05] Hear what I'm saying and make it feel alright
[00:48:00] Grab somebody, come on down
[00:52:00] Bring your paintbrush, we're painting the town
[00:56:03] Oh there's some sweetness going around
[01:00:03] Catch it down in New Orleans
[01:09:30] We got magic, good and bad
[01:13:50] Make you happy, or make you real sad
[01:17:30] Get anything you want or lose what you have
[01:21:40] Down here in New Orleans
[01:25:30] Hey partner, don't be shy
[01:29:50] Come on down here and give us a try
[01:33:15] You wanna do some living before you die
[01:36:55] Do it down in New Orleans
[01:55:30] Stately homes and mansions
[01:58:55] Of the sugar barons and cotton kings
[02:02:55] Rich people,old people,all got dreams
[02:08:20] Dreams do come true in New Orleans
