Way down yonder in New Orleans
In the land of the dreamy scenes
It's a garden of Eden... you know what I mean
Creole babies with lovin' eyes
Softly whisper their tender sighs
Stop.ya bet your life you'll linger there... a little while
Stop... won't you give your lady fair... a little smile
It's the heaven right here on earth
All the beautiful queens
Way down yonder in New... Orleans
Stop... won't you give your lady fair... a little smile
Stop... give lady fair... a little smile
Oh!
It's the heaven right here on earth
All the beautiful queens
Look out!
Way down yonder in New Orleans
