I walk the street’s of new Orleans With the girl of my dream’s I’ve seen a dozen brassbands play and swing While little children laugh , dance & sing I’ve seen old men drunk singin the blues With top hats’, canes and spectator shoes I consider myself lucky to have fallen in love With a girl, a city and the river of mud
(Chorus:) Let me know!… Let me know… Where I can go to save my soul? Let me know!… Let me know… Where I can go to save my soul?
I had a drink with ol’ Louies’ ghost He was our most gracious host I’ve heard Gabriel sing & play his horn And lived to see the day both my babies were born I love Jelly, Fats, fes and king They were the ones that taught the world to swing I consider myself lucky to have fallen in love With the music, a city and the river of mud
(Chorus:) Let me know!… Let me know… Where I can go to save my soul? Let me know!… Let me know… Where I can go to save my soul! Where I can go to save my soul!
New Orleans… new Orleans Where I can go… to save my soul! Where I can go to save my soul.
(Chorus:) Let me know!… Let me know… Where I can go to save my soul? Let me know!… Let me know… Where I can go to save my soul! Where I can go to save my soul!
New Orleans… new Orleans It's where I can go… to save my soul! New Orleans…new Orleans It's where I can go… to save my soul! Where I can go… to save my soul!
