New Orleans Lyrics - Harry Connick, Jr.

Do you know what it means to miss New Orleans 

And miss her each night and day 

I know I'm not wrong because the feeling's 

Getting stronger the longer I stay away 

Miss the moss-covered vines, tall sugar pines 

Where mockingbirds used to sing 

I'd love to see that old lazy Mississippi 

Running in the spring 

Moonlight on the bayous 

Creole tunes fill the air 

I dream about magnolias in June 

And I'm wishin I was there 

Do you know what it means to miss New Orleans 

When that's where you left your heart 

And there's one thing more, I miss the one I care for 

More than I miss New Orleans
