Hey creole darlin'
Talk that french to me
You know your love is somethin'
Like i ain't never seen
I'm goin' down, down, down, down to new orleans
Your eyes shine line diamonds
And those kisses sure make me scream
There ain't nothin' like love on the bayou
Honey i know you know what i mean
I'm goin' down, down, down, down to new orleans
I'm goin' down, down, down, down to new orleans
Chorus:
They got the gumbo and the creole
They got the quarter all night long
I got my delta queen that makes my heart sing
Man i ain't never goin' home
I'm goin' down, down, down, down to new orleans
