Way down yonder in New Orleans

In the land of the dreamy scenes

There's a Garden Of Eden, you know what I mean?

Creole babies with flashin' eyes

Softly whisper their tender sighs

Then stop won't you give your lady fair a little smile

Stop, ya bet your life you'll linger there a little while

We've got heaven right here on earth

With those beautiful queens

Way down yonder in New Orleans

You're gonna find heaven right here on earth

With all them beautiful queens

Way down yonder in New Orleans

I goin' down yonder to New Orleans

It's way down yonder in New Orleans
