Way down yonder in New Orleans
In the land of the dreamy scenes
There's a garden of eden...just what I mean
Oh, Creole babies with flashin' eyes
Softly whisper with tender sighs
Stop....I want to give your lady fair...a little smile
Stop..ya bet your life you'll linger there...a little while
There in heaven right here on earth
With those beautiful queens
Way down yonder in New...Orleans
(instrumental break)
Way down yonder in New Orleans
Way down in the land of the dreamy scenes
There's a garden of eden...you know best what I mean
Creole babies with flashin' eyes
Softly whisper with tender sighs
Stop....I want to give your lady fair...a little smile
Stop..ya bet your life you'll linger there...a little while
They got angels right here on earth
Wearing little blue jeans
Way down yonder in New...Orleans
Stop....I want to give your lady fair...a little smile
Stop..ya bet your life you'll linger there...a little while
There in heaven right here on earth
With those beautiful queens
Way down yonder in New Orleans
Way down in New Orleans
In the land of dreamy scenes
There's a garden of eden...that's what I mean
Creole babies with flashin' eyes
Softly whisper with tender sighs
Oh stop....I want to give your lady fair...a little smile
I said: stop! ya bet your life you'll linger there...a little while
There is heaven right here on earth
With those beautiful queens
