SONG OF NEW ORLEANS
Johnny and Betty Wiggs

As recorded by Maxine Sullivan, New York, January 1973


Our love was just a sweet affair,
Sometimes it takes us who knows where.
New Orleans, New Orleans,
Perhaps I値l find you there.

We met, and now we part tonight,
Let痴 see if it can sparkle bright,
You値l find me, you値l find me
When the time is right.

I need to sing
A honky tonky thing.
I need to shout
What life is all about.

Because I値l sing a song for you,
Because I値l play some jazz for you,
Remember, remember,
You値l love New Orleans, too.
