Listen and enjoy!
Do you know what it means to miss New Orleans
And miss it each night & day
I know I am not wrong this feeling´s gettin´ stronger
The longer, I stay away
Miss them moss covered vines the tall sugar pines
Where mockin´ birds used to sing
And I would like to see that lazy Mississippi hurryin´ into spring
The moonlight on the bayou a creole tune that fills the air
I dream about magnolias in bloom & I am wishin´ I was there
Do you know what it means to miss New Orleans
When that is where you left your heart
And theres one thing more I miss the one I care for
More than I miss New Orleans
The moonlight on the bayou a creole tune that fills the air
I dream about magnolias in bloom & I am wishin´ I was there
Do you know what it means to miss New Orleans
When that is where you left your heart
And theres one thing more I miss the one I care for
More more than I miss New Orleans

I’ve got the blues for yesterday
keeps on holding me
I’ve got the blues for yesterday
keeps on holding me
I’ve got the blues deep down
days that used to be
I like to sit by the fireside
dreaming of the days gone past (2)
one in one of those happy hours
was never meant to last
I’ve got a memory in Chicago
and a memory in New Orleans
memory in saint Louis
come back in my dreams
I’ve got a whole gang of memories
every town it seems
now meet my memories
also fall apart
some bad man got a woman
and the blues got my heart (repeat)
