Lyrics
Won't you come along with me?
To the Mississippi?
We'll take a boat to the land of dreams
Steam down the river, down to New Orleans
The band's there to meet us
Old friends, to greet us
Where all the rich and the poor folks meet
Heaven on earth, they call it, Basin Street
Basin Street, is the street
Where the elite, always meet
In New Orleans, land of dreams
You'll never know how nice it seems
Or just how much, it really means
Glad to be, yes-siree
Where welcomes free, dear to me
Where I can lose, my Basin Street blues
Basin Street, is the street
Where the elite, always meet
In New Orleans, land of dreams
You'll never know how nice it seems
Or just how much it really means
Glad to be, yes-siree
Where welcomes free, dear to me
Where I can lose, my Basin Street blues
