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
