New Orleans

(album: The Wicked Pickett - 1967)

Huh

Well come on everybody, take a trip with me, yeah, huh
Down to Mississippi, down in New Orleans now, yeah
The honeysuckle's growing from the honeysuckle vine, now
Ho lord, and love is growing there all the time, huh

Every southern belle, every Mississippi queen
Down to Mississippi, down in New Orleans
Said a-hey-ey-ey hey-hey (Hey-hey-hey hey-hey)
I said a-look out, hey-hey yeah (Look out, hey-hey yeah)

Come on, take a trip down to Basin street-ah, ah-hah
Lord have mercy, and listen to the music
Cut the dixieland beat, now
My mood just a-blossom, and attitude, yeah
You ain't really have it if a-you ain't in there
They got green moss hanging on the willow tree
Down in Mississippi, down in New Orleans, ho!

Huh!

Said a-hey-ey-ey hey, yeah (Hey-hey-hey hey yeah)
Look out, hey-hey yeah (Look out, hey-hey yeah)
Oh!

Come on everybody, take a trip with me now, huh
Down to Mississippi, down in New Orlean, hah
The honeysuckle's growing from the honeysuckle vine, now
Ho lord, and love is growing there all the time, huh

Every southern belle, every Mississippi queen
Down to Mississippi, down in New Orleans
Come on, hah, come on
You better come on, hah, oh yeah
