New Orleans Lyrics - Blues Brothers

I said hey, hey, hey, hey, yeah 

(I said hey, hey, hey, hey, yeah) 

I said a hey, a hey, hey, yeah 

(I said a hey, a hey, hey, yeah) 

A come on everybody take a trip with me, well 

Down the Mississippi down to New Orleans 

They got a honeysuckle growing on a honeysuckle vine 

And love is a blooming there all the time 

Well every southern belle is a Mississippi queen 

Down the Mississippi down to New Orleans 

I said hey, hey, hey, hey, yeah 

(I said hey, hey, hey, hey, yeah) 

I said a hey, hey, hey, yeah 

(I said a hey, hey, hey, yeah) 

A come on take a stroll down to Basin street 

Listen to the music with that Dixieland beat 

Well the magnolia blossoms fill the air 

Whoa,whoa, and you ain't been to heaven till you been down there 

They got French moss hangin from a big oak tree 

Get outta here Jimmy Vaughan take it! 

I said hey, hey, hey, hey, yeah 

(I said hey, hey, hey, hey, yeah) 

I said a hey, hey, hey, yeah 

(I said a hey, hey, hey, yeah) 

Come on everybody take a trip with me 

(whoo!) 

Down the Mississippi down to New Orleans, yeah, yeah. 

With a honeysuckle hanging on a honeysuckle vine 

Well love is blooming there all the time 

Every southern belle is a Mississippi queen 

Down the Mississippi down to New Orleans 

Yeah, yeah, yeah 

(Yeah, yeah, yeah) 

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah 

(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah) 

Come on take a stroll down to Basin street 

Listen to the music with the dixieland beat, yeah 

I say, the magnolia blossoms fill the air 

And you ain't been to heaven if you ain't been there. 

Honeysuckle hanging from a hollow tree 

Down in Mississippi down in New Orleans 

Well, I said Hey, hey, hey, yeah 

(Hey, hey, hey, yeah) 

I said a look out John, hey, yeah, yeah 

( I said a look out John hey, yeah, yeah)
