歌词
Why don't you come along with me
To the Mississippi?
We'll take a boat to the land of dreams
Steamin' down the river, down to New Orleans
The band's here to meet us
Old friends, they greet us
Where all the light and the dark folk meet
Honey child, this is Basin Street
Oh, yeah, Basin Street, it's the street
Where the elite, they always meet
In New Orleans, land of dreams
You'll never know how nice it seems
Or just how much it really means
I'm glad to be, yessiree
Where welcomes near, so dear to me
Where I can't lose
My, my, my Basin Street blues
We've got Mardi Gras, oysters raw
Cow and couvillion
In New Orleans, land of dreams
You'll never know how nice it seems
Or just how much it really means
Let's promenade down the esplanade
Follow that big second line parade
I can't lose
My, my, my Basin Street blues
Oh, no, I just don't wanna lose
My Basin Street blues
