Down that Mississippi
We'll take a boat to the land of dreams
Come along with me on, down to New Orleans
Now the band's there to greet us
Old friends will meet us
Where all them folks goin to the
St. Louis Cemetary meet
Heaven on earth.... they call it Basin Street
I'm tellin' ya, Basin Street...... is the street
Where all the white and dark folk meet
New Orleans..... land of dreams
