lyrics:
Head on down to New Orleans the prettiest place you've ever seen
Head on down to the river bend that's where the music never ends
Open your ears, don't you feel good, get yourself a shot of rhythm an’ blues.
Go on down to New Orleans, the greatest place you've ever seen
Go on down to the river bend, Dig the music of the Cajun bands
Honky-tonk piano make you feel good, open your ears to the rhythm & blues
Well did you ever wake up with them bullfrogs on your mind?
Well did you ever wake up with them bullfrogs on your mind?
You had to sit there laughin', laughing just to keep from cryin'
Well did you ever wake up with that blonde woman on your mind?
Well did you ever wake up with that blonde woman on your mind?
You had to sit there laughin', laughin' just to keep from cryin'
