CITY OF A MILLION DREAMS
Raymond Burke

As recorded by Maxine Sullivan, 
New York, January 1973.  

Also recorded by Johnny Wiggs Bayou Stompers and others.


Dreamin’ in the evening
Down in happy New Orleans,
Nearest thing to heaven,
A city of a million dreams.

Strollin’ in the springtime,
Where the lazy moonlight beams,
Only want to be in
A city of a million dreams.

Day time, night time,
They all sing.
Young folks, old folks.
Everybody swings.

That’s just where I’m goin’,
Back to happy New Orleans.
There’s a place for me in
A city of a million dreams.
